Here-There-Or Where? Los Angeles, F.G. Thayer & Co. ca. 1930. A startling transposition trick in which a bottle, orange, and quantity of rice magically change places in quick succession. Apparatus includes a Thayer-turned Rice Vase, pedestal, and set of Thayer-made nesting bottles and tubes. Finish of all items generally worn, but overall good condition. Scarce. Thayer advertised the trick as "A surprising combination, full of pep from start to finish…." and, "As fine an opening feature as one could wish for, and absolutely no skill necessary."
