Arturo’s Oriental Fantasy
$695.00
Arturo’s Oriental Fantasy – RARE – With Extra Tube & Checkers
Description Courtesy of Martin’s Magic
Effect: A cabinet is shown completely empty. A stack of checkers is shown-checker by checker-and stacked alternately on a base and set in the cabinet. The cabinet is closed and shown all around. A cover is shown along with a glass of rice. The checkers are taken from the cabinet, and the glass of rice is put in their place. The checkers and the base are put under the cover. Now a change is commanded, and when the cabinet is opened, the glass of rice is gone, and in its place :s the stack of checkers. When the cover is raised, the glass of rice is found where the checkers were.
Along with the instructions, you get a story about a wealthy man who had money and put it in a cabinet. A thief came and stole the money and put in its place a glass of rice, the final insult to a person who has been robbed. Of course all is made well. You receive EVERYTHING. The cabinet, the glass, the rice, checkers, and the cover. The cabinet and the cover are items of beauty. All parts are perfectly finished in gorgeous colors.
NOTE: You’re receiving the original prop as issued, instructions, plus an extra tube (pictured), extra checkers (pictured), and extra bases (pictured). Included within the extra checkers is an extra shell as well.
Condition: Keep in mind this prop is 50+ years old, it does show some imperfections which are not noticeable from a display shelf or performance, but are visible up-close. The two checker shells definitely reflect their age and could use some paint touch-up.
