Ken Griffin's Comedy Bucket and Lota Bowl. American, ca. 1960 [?]. The magician pours water from a small brass urn that magically refills itself several times into a large metal bucket. When the magician tosses the water in the bucket toward the audience, it transforms into dry confetti. Used by Ken Griffin and Roberta in their illusion show that toured throughout the United States. Bucket stands 8 3/4" high. Urn (lota bowl) shows considerable wear and dents, likely an intentional embellishment by Griffin.
