Magic Switchboard. Beaver, PA, Bert Pickard, ca. 1980. Four differently colored light bulbs are lit by switching correspondingly-colored switches. Yet when the bulbs are moved to different sockets, the corresponding switch still lights the same bulb. Then the switch covers are mixed around and still the corresponding switch and bulb light as before. Similar to the model manufactured by Wellington Enterprises, but with a plexiglass base, and operating on a difference principle (gimmicked bulbs). Good condition.
