Harries Fingerborgs-trick (Thimble Trick). Sweden: Harries Magic, ca. early–mid 20th century.

“Det bästa Fingerborgstricket” (“The best thimble trick”). Boxed thimble routine billed as a sensation for performance, culminating in the production of eight oversized thimbles in succession—four white wooden and four white-painted metal examples. Complete with original printed carton, production gimmick, and instructions. Box with “Vita” retailer stamp. An unusually well-preserved example, retaining its original wraps and crisp presentation. Light wear from age; contents clean and scarcely handled. Very good to near fine.
