Flowering Rose Bush. New Haven, Petrie & Lewis, ca. 1945. A barren green plant in a large pot rests on the magician's table. At the performer's command, the bush slowly begins to sprout and grow real roses in a manner resembling time-lapse photography. At the conclusion of the trick, the flowers can be distributed to audience members. Faux plant is manufactured of copper, with hammered metal leaves. Hallmarked. Some wear to foliage and finish of pot, but overall good condition.
