FOWLER, Gus. The Watch King! Liverpool: Sam Griffith, 1911. Two-color letterpress broadside advertising Fowler at the top of the bill at the Argyle Theatre of Varieties, Birkenhead. 35 x 11 ¼”. Two puncture holes at top, else very good. A specialized magic act along the lines of T. Nelson Downs, Fowler manipulated pocket watches and alarm clocks with ease and alacrity. The broadside states he will “…manufacture watches by a special process of his own” and that he will use Ingersoll watches exclusively.
