Spirit Clock Dial. Lake Forest, IL: John McKinven, ca. 1990. Hand-painted Lucite clock dial 12" in diameter and wooden framework which holds it. Though there are no apparent connections to the dial, its hand will answer questions, reveal selected cards or perform other feats when spun. Hand and fittings made of vintage chrome-plated brass. In a custom wooden carrying case also manufactured by McKinven. Unique. This outfit was specially manufactured by McKinven and can be operated by the magician or a hidden assistant. The device and a routine for its use was described in Robert Parrish's?Great Tricks Revisited?(1998).
