Raymond, Maurice (Morris Raymond Saunders). The Great Raymond’s Enchanted Teakettle. Circa 1910. From a seemingly ordinary tea kettle Raymond could pour – as if by magic – any drink called for by members of his audience. Two nickel-plated kettles, 6 _” diameter, one gimmicked for the effect, the other a duplicate which could withstand scrutiny from the audience. Some wear and repairs visible, not tested with liquid. Owned and used by The Great Raymond.
