This is a seldom seen, if ever seen item I dug out...so old it is new!

The Anverdi Wonder Tray...what's cool about this us when the glass on tray visibly fills with milk the glass can be picked up before vanishing again! You will also see a neat table top bar act I purchased from the UK.

I have a question regarding the Wonder Tray. I have one with no glasses, but this tray doesn’t use the gaudy rubber bulb attached that needs to be hidden in the hand. It has an internal bulb/bladder system. I’m guessing this came after the tray with bulb? The video I have of Bill McIlhaney demoing many Anverdi pieces at a ring lecture in LA shows him using the “bulb-less” tray. Are the no bulb trays more rare? Possible value of one?

Hello,

Yes the internal bulb version is newer, the "bulb" on this version is more like a bladder and can spring a leak. Also Anverdi made electronic trays with a tiny pump inside. Also he made the gaudy exterior pump which terminates to a long clear hose which is on the floor behind your table, by stepping on the bulb the glass(s) fill up. I have all of the above in my collection.
