Bell Ladder and Homing Bells Combination. Flein: Rüdiger Deutsch, ca. 2000. The performer produces a quantity of metal sleigh bells at his fingertips, dropping them into a glass bowl resting atop the ladder. On command, the bells then penetrate the bowl, cascading down the ladder one at a time, falling into a matching bowl below. For a finale, the magician vanishes four bells at his fingertips, which appear hanging from ribbons affixed to the upper platform of the ladder. Height 54”. Engraved brass maker’s plate at rear of upper platform. Very good working condition.An unusual variant of the Coin Ladder. The clockwork mechanism concealed in the upper platform activates each aspect of the device, from dropping the bells individually to releasing the bells onto the ribbons.
