Early in his career he also took up Shadowgraphy.

History

In 1911, a trial week at St. George's Hall was extended to many months, setting the standard for his professional career. He played top variety theaters in Europe and South Africa and was often seen on television (including a "What's My Line?" appearance which he was quickly recognized). Victor was the Blackpool Magicians' club's first Honorary Life President.
