I know this coincidence goes back a ways, but boy-o-boy that is similar.

And the illusion that the bottle won't fit all the way into the cup is perfect!

Final load:
"Would you believe me if I told you the balls have completely vanished? Look - a wave of the wand they all FLY away!" (I saw some great, large plastic/rubber flies at a novelty shop last week...)

Several years ago, I discovered that the caps from Spic N Span and/or Mr. Clean could very easily pass for a set of slum cups. The idea was to conclude by finding one of the caps screwed onto a bottle. I think I still have the props here. BTW - Did anyone actually read the heading on that Thermos ad?? Yikes!! Using dead babies to sell your product??

In the years before vaccinations and other medical/pediatric advancements, infant mortality was much higher and it was not at all uncommon to exploit anxiety over newborn and infant frailty to sell tonics and cure-alls. Tragically, these issues are still part of everyday life in many parts of the world.

I have had to be very careful with the photos in the museum for the same reason.
It's not a pretty sight!

Bill...
I love your sense of humor. You always bring a smile to my face. Look forward to your posts. Pete Biro's , too. Much appreciated! Ray
There was a time I had the blues,
the reason was I had no shoes. Until I met upon the street a man who had no feet. |
