Thurston, Howard. Spirit Hand Possibly Owned by Howard Thurston. Circa 1930. False metal hand, used for the daylight spirit séance trick. Attributed to famous American magician Howard Thurston; a label on the reverse in John Daniel’s hand states, “Howard Thurston from Kirkham.” Charles “Chuck” Kirkham was a well-known California-based illusionist and collector of illusions. He owned large portions of the Thurston show.
