149 The Magic AltT One of the dove pans is constructed in a manner familiar to all magicians. I will call this pan "A." The second dove pan, which I will designate as "B," is the same type, but has the bottom cut out of the pan proper, leaving, however, a rim about one inch … wide around the edge of the pan. A loose disc of tin, with which to cover the bottom opening, accompanies this pan.
