[Jean Henri] Servais Le Roy (also LeRoy) was born in Belgium in 1865. Harry Houdini praised him and Harry Kellar called him the most finished artist he had ever seen. Mrs. Mercedes Le Roy (Mary Ford) known around the world as Talma: The Queen of Coins, was often compared to the sleight-of-hand expert, T. Nelson Downs, and the rotund Leon Bosco induced gales of laughter by switching the heads on two living birds. Together, they were Le Roy, Talma and Bosco - The Comedians de Mephisto. His first success was in England's music halls and American vaudeville during the 1890s, and finally, international fame as a recognized star of the Variety stage. Retired in 1930 after being injured in an automobile accident. File contains biographical and bibliographic notes, press cuttings, theatre programs and photographs.
