Vanishing Alarm Clock

$545.00

H. Marshall & Co., ca. 1940-1950s

A handsomely oversized alarm clock sits atop a metal-trimmed tray. A foulard is draped over the clock before it’s lifted from the tray. The audience is given a final glimpse under the cloth—the clock is then tossed in the air where it dissolves into thin air. Tray trimmed on sides and top in heavy hammered-metal. Mild wear with age and use, otherwise in very good condition. Measures 11×11”. Scarce.
