Eye of Isis. Middlesex: Alan Warner, ca. 1990s. A blank slate is displayed inside an ornate sarcophagus; the lid is replaced and a spectator is asked to stare at the box. When the lid is removed a second time, the tablet contains the Eye of Isis. The lid is replaced and opened a third time, finally revealing a hieroglyphic phrase. 2 ¼ x 6 x 2 ½”. Finish loss and small chip to lid, else good.
