- Lot Description
Chung Ling Soo (William Ellsworth Robinson). Chung Ling Soo. Marvellous Chinese Conjurer. Birmingham: James Upton, ca. 1908. Handsome color lithograph shows Soo on stage performing an illusion of his own invention, the Crystal Lantern. 22 ¼ x 30". Over coloring throughout image; B. Though he found great success as Chung Ling Soo, William Ellsworth Robinson was, before assuming the role of a Chinese magician, an assistant to some of the greatest magicians of the twentieth century, working behind the scenes for Kellar and Herrmann. He died on stage in London at the Wood Green Empire while performing his version of the Bullet Catch feat. Instead of catching the bullet on a plate in his hands, it caught him in his chest. He died soon thereafter.
