Aldini Bowl Production

Released by UF Grant & MAK Magic

The MAK Magic Aldini Bowl Production is a classic stage magic illusion where a magician produces a large fishbowl, potentially full of water and live fish, from a seemingly empty, open-sided box on a small table. 

This Aldini Bowl Production represents an improved version of the Westgate Bowl Production allowing for the effect to be automatic. A full description is within the pictures that outlines the effect.

A really amazing illusion that is quite the fooler when performed. Comes complete as pictured including instructions.

The Illusion Description

• Demonstration of “Emptiness”: The magician shows the pyramid-shaped box (which lacks a top and bottom) and the small table to be empty. This is accomplished through misdirection and the design of the props which allows the magic to occur when the box is lifted briefly with the platform/cloth.
• Production of Silks/Flowers: The magician places the box back on the cloth-covered table and reaches inside to produce a large quantity of items like silk handkerchiefs or spring flowers. 
• The Climax: After the initial productions, the magician lifts the pyramid box to reveal a large fishbowl sitting on the table. The props and mechanism manage the appearance of the bowl at the appropriate time, making it seem impossible for such a large object to fit inside the previously shown empty box.

Condition Disclosure for Rare & Vintage Collectible Magic Apparatus

PHOTOS

Please review all listing photos carefully, as they are an important part of the item description. The photos are intended to show the overall visual condition of the apparatus, including possible imperfections, paint quality, decals if applicable, shelf wear, performance wear, and age-related characteristics.

LABELS

MagicTrickCollection.com does not rely on broad condition labels such as “good,” “very good,” “excellent,” or “mint” for vintage and antique magic effects. These terms can be subjective and may mean different things to different collectors. Instead, we believe clear photos from multiple angles provide the most accurate way to evaluate condition without revealing the working secrets of the effect.

OLD VERSUS NEW

Items listed under Rare & Vintage Collectible Magic may range from 10 to 100 years old or more. These are not new magic props. They may show signs of age, handling, storage, repairs, fragility, paint loss, decal wear, or prior performance use.

If your intent is to perform with the item, please understand that some vintage apparatus may require careful handling, adjustment, and practice. This disclosure is provided to help ensure buyers understand they are purchasing a vintage collectible magic item with age, history, and character—not a newly manufactured prop.
