Tarbell Orange Vase. Johnston Rhode Island, Majic Brand Woodturning, 2005. A small orange is made to vanish and reappear in a lacquered wooden vase, or change places with a handkerchief. Vase stands 4 ¼” tall. Fine condition. The apparatus for this effect and the routine performed therewith was originally designed by Harlan Tarbell and manufactured by Floyd Thayer. Tarbell’s routine was described in his famous Tarbell Course. Original Thayer-made props for the trick are exceedingly scarce and delicate.
