Miniature Blue Phantom. German, 1930s. Miniature example of the classic parlor trick, this model incorporating a gimmicked cigar box and a tube and rod arrangement that allows a red or black checker in a stack of white checkers to move about when covered with a nickeled tube. Unusual mechanism. 9 x 4 x 8”. Very good. Scarce.
