Al-Jo Card Frame. Cincinnati: John Snyder Jr., ca. 1940. The finest of card frames. Two chosen cards appear - back to back - sandwiched between two glass plates held in a wooden frame. As cards appear, a flash bulb hooked to the frame pops; the unit can be held by a spectator as it operates and can be examined. With original instructions, test lamp, bulbs, trigger/release, and wooden packing case. One of 50 units manufactured. Very good.
