Die Box to Drinks. England, Arthur Culpin, ca. 1955. Apparently a traditional Die Box and Chimney effect in which a solid die vanishes from a wooden box only to reappear under a wooden tube across the stage. Then, to toast the success of the trick, the magician removes the lid of the Die Box which transforms into a tray covered with a cloth and six cordial glasses. Together with a metal Sausage Gun manufactured by Culpin, and in its original packing case bearing Culpin’s logo on the lid. One of 15 sets manufactured by Culpin. Very good.
