A bottle and a glass transpose – magically – from one tube to another. Then a “tipsy-turvy” routine can be performed with a clever mechanical bottle in one of the tubes. Two nesting bottles, one mechanical “tipsy-turvy” bottle, and two tubes. Rare. According to The P&L Book (Walker, 1992), this prop was never advertised or cataloged by P&L, and no instruction sheets were issued. Some wear, a few paint chips, else in good condition. The ingenuity of the mechanical bottle cannot be overstated - no other versions of this classic trick we are aware of use this type of mechanish for the topsy-turvy effect.
