Duolette. New York: Richard Himber, ca. 1950. A https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/43294442_duolette-new-york-richard-himber-ca-1950-a

Sold for:
$225

Duolette. New York: Richard Himber, ca. 1950. A see-through Lucite houlette that doubles as a deck-switching device. Switching mechanism built into houlette. 4 x 4 ¾ x 3 ¾". Very good. Uncommon in this condition. Scarce. Originally released in 1942, the first models of this prop were made from wood. This, a later example, works more smoothly. Unfortunately, due to the fragile nature of the switching mechanism, most have not survived in good condition, making this example all the more desirable.
