Collectors’ Workshop “Bagels & Locks” — Original, Unused, with Mint Box (Rare OOP)
Own a piece of magic history. This is the original Collectors’ Workshop (Ruggiero/Bloch era) Bagels & Locks—long out of production, rarely seen in unused condition with the original CW box. A parlor-ready “card to impossible location” framed as playful comedy: a freely selected card ends up locked inside a bagel. No knuckle-busting, just brilliant CW engineering and timing.
Condition: Unused. Original mint CW box present. With original CW instruction sheet.
