The Davenport Collection
- a growing resource on magic and entertainment history

The Davenports featured on the cover of ‘The Magician’ for December 1906

By 1906 The Davenports were gaining plenty of work in variety theatres. Will Goldston, the editor of The Magician, clearly felt that they justified being featured on the front page. Also illustrated here is a glowing write up of The Davenports from page 3 of the magazine. The act was usually billed as “No Time to Talk” which, given the speed of the act, was fully justified.
