Silver dollar sized Okito Box. Quite interesting that Theo Bamberg who was most interested in performing stage magic is credited with the Okito box, one of the most ingenious pieces of close-up magic in the art. The best part of it for those that are able to see through to the other side - it is non-gimmicked.
That means you can perform close-up coin miracles and at the end of your performance you can leave everything out in the open (at least with respect to the coin box) depending on the type of performance and if or not the magician incorporates some gimmicked coins (which is a great idea actually).
I cannot state the maker but if I had to make such a declaration I would guesstimate "Ring and Things" but under who's ownership I can't state. I forget his last name but his first name was Chris, and I would guess these were made while he was at the helm of Rings and Things.
In the art of magic it is always used for transformations, appearances, vanishes or penetrations. This would look beautiful with some Silver Morgan's or even the Morgan Replica's. This is a professionally crafted Okito Box which you can tell when its in your hands due to the weight. It's weighted and balanced perfectly.
Condition: Fine to Very Fine No instructions or coins are included.
