The Giant and the Dwarf. Merv Taylor, ca. 1955

A delightful story effect in which a proud dwarf is seen atop his castle, only to be threatened by a fierce 16” giant who vows to seize the fortress—and make a meal of its occupant. But when the dwarf emerges, he has suddenly grown to an imposing 23”, sending the once-bold giant scurrying into the castle in fear. The enchanted stronghold takes its revenge: the giant shrinks smaller than the dwarf ever was, completing a humorous and surprising tale.

Taylor’s version employs painted metal cut-outs, matching stands, and gimmicks. The castle is shown empty before each transformation, enhancing the mystery. Original instructions included. Very good condition.
