Title: Vintage 18” Stage Size "Santa's Chimney" Color-Changing Santa Magic Illusion (Complete)
Item Condition: Used / Good Vintage Condition please see last picture there is a chip out of the corner of the chimney and it looks like there is a repaired crack underneath it.
Description:
Up for sale is a fantastic, complete, large 18-inch Stage/Parlor size vintage holiday comedy magic trick commonly known as the Color-Changing Santa or Santa's Chimney Sucker Gag.
Unlike smaller tabletop versions, this beautifully crafted, classic wooden stage prop stands a full 18 inches tall, making it highly visible and perfect for professional kid-show magicians, holiday school assemblies, or vintage magic collectors.
What is Included:
• 1 Extra-Large Red Brick Chimney Box (Approx. 18" Tall)
• 1 Sturdy Black Display Base
• 1 Double-Sided Wooden Santa Claus Cutout (Features a Red suit on one side and a Blue suit on the other)
• 1 Blue Plastic Shell/Gimmick Cover
How It Works / The Effect:
The magician shows Santa Claus wearing a blue suit and lowers the brick chimney over him. With a bit of Christmas magic, the chimney is removed to reveal Santa's suit has turned red! The audience will immediately think you just turned the flat figure around. To prove them wrong, you put the chimney back on, rotate the base 180 degrees, and lift the box—but Santa remains blue! It is a brilliant, high-interaction "sucker gag" routine that drives audiences wild.
Condition Details:
• Functionality: 100% complete and fully working. The gimmick shell fits snugly and lifts/mechanically functions exactly as it should.
• Cosmetics: Shows minor, normal cosmetic wear from gentle handling and age, adding beautiful vintage character. Paint colors are still bright and vivid (please review all photos for close-up details).
Shipping & Handling:
Due to the large 18-inch stage size, this item will be packed securely with plenty of protective padding to ensure it arrives safely. Ships out quickly via calculated shipping to give you the fairest rate based on your location!
