EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when two iconic figures, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Harry Houdini, came together outside the prestigious Auto Club in London. The year was 1930, and both men were at the height of their fame - Conan Doyle as the renowned writer behind Sherlock Holmes, and Houdini as the master escape artist.
Despite their different backgrounds - Conan Doyle a physician turned writer and Houdini a magician extraordinaire - the two men shared a mutual respect and friendship, albeit with a friendly feud sprinkled in. In this image, they stand side by side, smiling for the camera with windows of the club serving as a backdrop.
It's fascinating to see these historical figures captured in such an informal setting, showcasing their hip style and camaraderie. The photo is reminiscent of a bygone era when British literature and French magic intertwined to create lasting legacies.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this snapshot of history for future generations to appreciate. It serves as a reminder of the impact that these remarkable individuals had on society during their time and continues to inspire curiosity about their lives and contributions.
