Harry Eng Puzzle Bottle. California, Harry Eng, ca. 1990. An impossible bottle in that a deck of cards with a sparkplug running through a hole in its center has been placed in a glass bottle with a neck far smaller than the cards. Furthermore, a length of rope has been tied through another hole in the deck, and the rope has been knotted – as was Eng’s trademark – both above and below the mouth of the bottle. Eng’s signature appears on the card box. Bottle 7 ½” high. Very good.
