ANTIQUE ENGLISH CIG TO MATCH & VANISHING CANDLE

At the far right is a manipulator's candle I believe. This would be used as part of a multiplying candles routine. These early versions were pure sleight of hand and did not operate via a hinge. The other candle and two cigarettes each fit into their respective nickeled tubes and would transform into salt, matches, etc. Whatever fit into the tubes essentially (a silk would be possible with the larger candle). These came from England and are c1940.
