Another winner from Alan
Anything new from Alan is always so welcome. Missed the days when I was building up my Warner collection and feeling like a kid in a toy’s store when his parcels arrived. This is Alan’s latest in his teak mini-magic line and it is definitely a treat.
The drawer type, rectangular box is gorgeously decorated on all viewable sides as can been seen, comes with solid brass feet and knob and works like a charm. I believe the method in revealing the coins at the end has not been incorporated in any previous Warner piece. It’s ingenious in operation with perfect workmanship to match.
There is a definite ease in performing this routine, so that lets you relax and tell the story of Chan Chu, the three legged money frog. Clearly, a beautiful Warner piece to add to my collection. Wondering what Alan will release next?

What a great looking prop that plays a role in a very charming story about a mythical frog that likes money! The mechanics are easy to operate and provide a wonderful change right under the audiences nose!
Highly recommended!!

This is an overlooked beauty from Alan. Firstly this is not a drawer box, although it looks like one and could easily be confused for one. It uses a method that I have not seen in any other Alan Warner piece and in fact I can’t think of another prop that uses the same method.
What is clever about this effect is that instead of switching one thing for another as a standard drawer box would do, it allows you to add the coins to the existing card and single gold coin. What this means is you could have the card or coin signed or you could do more with less space. Once you see it you will notice what I am talking about. But when I opened this up I was very pleased to see the new, clever, and very deceiving method.
Of course it looks colorful and beautiful too so if you were looking for a neat item to add to your collection and you missed this the first time around, this is it.
