Boettcher Silk and Die Transposition: Germany: scarce

This magnificent effect is actually two separate Pieces of apparatus that combine nicely into one effect. It is one one the most rare normal die vanishes available.

You show a die and place in on a pedestal and cover it with an open framework. You then place a small silk into an empty chest and put on the lid.  At your command you lift up the cover on the die and the die has vanished just leaving the empty framework there. YOU open the small chest and remove the solid die!

Built by Thomas Pohle circa 1985. Comes with instructions in German and an English explanation.  It is in the original boxes and I don’t believe it has ever been used. The pedestal is 6 inches tall and the small die chest is 3.5 inches tall. No silks included.

Estimate $400-600
