Strip Tease Dancer. Cincinnati: John Snyder, ca. 1937. A compact version of Culpitt's Bathing Beauty. A dancer's costume, shown on a printed board, are removed by the magician one at a time, and yet when the final stitch is peeled away, the curtains are seen drawn around the lady's body to conceal her birthday suit. 19 x 12 x 1". With original package. The first we have seen. Most of Synder's more elaborate effects were manufactured in limited quantities of 50. This prop was advertised for a short period of time, and may have been designed by Lester Lake.
