Raymond, Maurice F. , Howard Thurston and Eugene Laurant. Group Snapshot Portrait. "When Shall We Three Meet Again?" [New York], 1914. Sepia-tone portrait of the three famous magicians together, occasioned by their meeting at the Hotel Statler (Buffalo). 4 _ x 7 ". Very good. An account of the dinner the three men shared was contributed by Laurant to "The Sphinx" (April, 1914) who writes that the trio's "wit and repartee" slowly attracted the attention of the entire dining room. Both "The Sphinx" and Goldston's "Magician Monthly" reproduced the photograph, the latter with the captioned with the quote from Macbeth.
