Cincinnati & New York: The Strobridge Litho. Co., ca. 1897. The famous American magician stands in the middle of a mysterious cave-like scene filled with tiny red imps pushing red spheres down slides and up spiral-shaped ramps. On stage, the effect was known as the Golliwog Ball. At Kellar's command, a large ball rolled up and down an inclined plank, one end of which rested on the back of a chair. 39x 29 ". Borders, central folds and closed tears expertly restored; B+. Scarce.
