MAK Magic Moxahalla

Moxahalla is a classic stage magic effect created by U.F. Grant and manufactured by MAK Magic (Columbus, Ohio) from approximately 1951 through the 1990s.

Effect and History

• The Routine: A glass of clear water is poured into a tube or cabinet. Upon using the magic word “Moxahalla,” the water transforms into milk, and then can be changed back into water or other colorful variants.
• Origin: The effect originated in England during the 1940s at Harry Stanley’s Unique Magic Studios before being brought to the USA by U.F. Grant in 1951.
• Reputation: It is frequently cited by collectors as one of Grant’s most beautiful and “messiest” effects due to the use of liquids and elaborate apparatus. 

Collectability

• Manufacturer: Primarily sold by MAK Magic, the company founded by U.F. Grant.
• Availability: Due to its age and unique nature, it is rarely seen in modern performances but can occasionally be found on specialty auction sites or vintage magic dealers.

Condition: In very collectible condition with several minor imperfections to the canister and tube. The faked milk glass seems to reflect the most wear. Please review the pictures for more clarity. Includes a copy of the instructions.
