'Peek-a-Box' is a new concept combining a kaleidoscope with
a shadow box. This optical illusion is achieved using a
mirror set at 45 degrees, and a couple of tricks thrown in
to conceal the placement of the mirror. As you can see from
the photo above, even the kaleidoscope mirrors are hidden!
It looks as if the viewer is just looking closely at a
piece of paper, yet the viewer is actually seeing the
following image...
