Sobre este artículo
Theatrical Studio, Chicago, 1925; Vintage signed silver gelatin 8" x 10" portrait photograph, circa 1925, of magician/comedienne Doreen Palmer, wife and stage partner of Jay Palmer in the magic act "Jay Palmer And Doreen." Jay Palmer began his show business career in 1921 as an assistant to vaudeville magician The Great Leon (Leon Harry Levy, 1876-1951), and later to Harry Houdini. After the the Palmers met and married they formed their own act, in which Jay performed most of the magic and Doreen provided comedic counterpoint by way of condescending criticism of her husband’s technique. They were well known for their original illusion "The Magic Kettle," in which a small pitcher poured out a seemingly endless stream of water, and the duo enjoyed a long popularity, continuing their act on both stage and television into the 1960’s. The photo is inscribed and signed to friends Leon Jr. (son of The Great Leon), and his wife "Teddy," a much revered couple in the world of magic. It reads, "To Junior and Teddy, xxxx & Joy, Doreen." Leon Jr. and Teddy were married in June, 1925, and it is thus likely, from the sentiments expressed, that the photo was part of Doreen’s wedding wishes for the new couple. Stamped "Theatrical Studio, Chicago" on the back. From the Great Leon estate. Fine condition.
