Machini the Marvel performing The Transmutative Hat

The automaton depicts a vintage era magician at a cocktail table. On the table is his upturned top hat.

When the crank is rotated he slowly pulls his hand out from within the hat to reveal that he is holding an object. As the crank is rotated further, his hand decends into the hat once again and then rises to reveal a new object!

Machini performs masterful illusion several times to the amazement of all!
