Ed Massey invented this clever and original effect. The initial version of Squeeze Away Block first appeared in Blackstone’s Annual of Magic c. 1929 in a contribution written and illustrated by Massey. Commercial versions started appearing c. 1946.
This is a beautiful version of the classic Massey effect and one of the the very rare early items from the now famous German Craftsman Thomas Pohle. These were sold by Eckhard Boettcher in very limited numbers. This is the first one I have seen. Made very solidly in Mahogany and Brass – it is a real rare beauty for sure 🙂
