Hvem daterede Howard Thurston?

Howard Thurston (July 20, 1869 – April 13, 1936) was a stage magician from Columbus, Ohio, United States. As a child, he ran away to join the circus, where his future partner Harry Kellar also performed. Thurston was deeply impressed after he attended magician Alexander Herrmann's magic show and was determined to equal his work. Alexander Herrmann was a French magician and was known as "Herrmann the Great". Thurston eventually became the most famous magician of his time. Thurston's traveling magic show was the biggest one of all; it was so large that it needed eight train cars to transport his road show.

Harry August Jansen (3. oktober 1883 - 15. juni 1955) var en tryllekunstner, der blev født i København, Danmark. Han flyttede senere til USA, hvor han optrådte under navnet Dante the Magician.
