Abbott’s Impalement circa 1930: Rare with equally rare original instructions

I love coming up with the earliest of Abbott Props that are pretty much obscure, even to the seasoned Abbott Collector.

Impalement is a very early prop with the original 1930 instructions from “The Abbott Magic and Novelty Company”.  Neither of these items should exist at 90 years but here they are with the original “Spikes” for the thumb penetration. These once belonged to the long time collector, magician and former owner of The Thayer Magic Company  Clayton Jacobson (Rudy Roxo). A simple but yet amazing find for you Abbott Collectors.

Estimate $50-100
