The German Magic Circle (Magischer Zirkel Deutschland) held its 1936 international convention in Munich. Lewis, Wynne and Gus Davenport were there. This official film taken by F.A. Brandt includes Gus Davenport performing the 3 Shell Game. Other performers were Ottokar Fischer and, with card magic; Dr Keck, Dr Schitzkowski and Dr Geimer. Brandt’s film has been edited in this version so as to avoid divulging magic secrets. The film provides a snapshot of magical thinking and performance styles in the mid-1930s.
The Davenport family also took some film at the convention, including many shots of the attendees: see N2895.
