WILLARD, HARRY. WILLARD THE WIZARD?S GLASS THROUGH HAT TABLE. Hamburg: Carl Willmann, ca. 1920. Nickel-plated upright supporting a glass top and terminating in a Kellar-style base. Cleverly gimmicked to allow the magician to apparently pass a glass tumbler through the crown of a borrowed hat resting atop the drinking glass. Height 35?. Gimmick catch loose. With a letter of provenance tracing the ownership of the table.
