This is a product from our Quality Used/Collectable Magic Department.

Very rare, NOT the later Abbotts model. This is THE ORIGINAL British made version by the legendary  Inventor, Craftsman, and Dealer Jack Hughes. Jack invented many staples in magic that we take for granted today (including: TV Card Frame (1936), Coins in Glass (before Copenetro) (1939), Clatter Box (1951) and many more. He also invented this beauty, Attaboy, c. 1937.

In effect three cards are selected and returned to the pack which is placed into a houlette at the feet of Attaboy – an 47cm cut-out of a bellboy, who holds a second houlette against his chest. One by one, cards are taken from the deck in the lower houlette and passed in front of Attaboy’s eyes, then dropped into the upper houlette. Spectators may stop the performer at any time a card is held before the boy’s eyes and when that card is turned over, it is always one of the selected cards. This is repeated for each of the remaining selected cards. Only one pack used, in fact the deck may be a borrowed one.

In fantastic working condition complete with instructions.
