Eli's Box created by Ralph E. Hackman presented by Mark Strivings
Way back in 1921, an ad appeared in the pages of Thayer's Magical Bulletin. It was for an enigmatic device known as Eli's Dice Box. Through the use of that mystical box, regulation dice could be controlled in ways that had not been seen before, allowing for some very impressive magical feats. While the concept of what that box does has been around for over a century, the box itself has-been unavailable for several decades. There have been a couple of remakes over the years, but they were always short-lived and in limited supply. When one of these classic devices appears on the second-hand market, it fetches astronomical prices. These things are rarer than hen's teeth. This is a genuinely unfortunate situation because the uses for this simple device are extremely interesting. What is an Eli's Dice Box, anyway? It's a small box that easily holds three or more dice. Toe box is shaken, and a variety of end results can occur. Predictions can be made. Card tricks can be performed. Book Test
