Two matchboxes are on the table, one on top of the other. As you pick up the top box, the one underneath, which is attached, starts twirling round. Quite a surprise. This is definitely old Davenport stock as it was included in some of the goody bags for the 1998 Davenports Centenary Celebration held in Brighton.
