In 1950, The Magic 8 Ball was known as Syco-Seer a design by the late Carter, it was his brother-in-law Abe Bookman who re-desgned to turn the Syco-Seer into a black-and-white 8 ball with a floating 20-sided die. When the ball is shaken, the die floats to the surface, revealing its answer to your question about the future. #Crazy8
