Sand Canisters. New Haven, P&L, ca. 1935. A small metal canister fills a larger canister with sand repeatedly – the quantity of sand produced and received seems virtually endless. Large canister 10 ½” high. Large canister hallmarked. Finish and seams worn; good. Rare. The Sand Canisters were not part of the regular P&L catalog, which offered a limited line of finely made, professional-grade products. The famous New Haven, Connecticut magic factory was called “the house where tricks are born.”
