Loyd Tom Thumb Chest: rare with a wonderful ownership provenance

This is an incredible little box with a lot going on. It vanishes a dove small animal etc.  The cloth you see is a cover to be placed over a chair that is on the stage.  It is part of the amazing deceptiveness of this chest.  It went from Ken Klosterman’s  Salon De Magie to Bill King’s collection two of the most famous collections of the past 5o years.  Both men’s inventory numbers remain on the prop along with the Loyd Hallmark  Then on to my collection for many years,   No you don’t need a flat rubber dove to do this.   You will love it as did Ken as you can see by the note he wrote to Bill.  Very good condition.  With instructions.

Estimate $600-800
