Book Description
The Davenport Brothers created a sensation all over America and Europe and continued mystifying audiences for years as part of the American spiritualist movement. William Henry and Ira Erastas Davenport introduced the spirit cabinet for mediums to use during a seance, these cabinets would section the medium off from view while they were producing their strange phenomena, the mediums were usually bound hand and foot in the cabinet while phenomena manifested about them. Later the brothers were to teach Houdini the trick of escaping from bonds. The Davenport's careers came to an end in 1877 when William died suddenly. In honor of his brother, Ira ordered a magnificent memorial for him on which was carved a representation of their ropes, cabinet and other seance props. William had died in Australia and cemetery officials in Sydney would not allow the monument within the cemetery grounds. It was placed outside instead. Ira himself died in 1911. File contains bibliographic and biographical notes, photographs and press cuttings.
