Los Magicos was a magic organization out of Los Angeles California created by Caryl Fleming, their first president, with help from others such as Gerald Kosky, Bill Larsen Sr., Lloyd Jones and Great Leon in 1933. Membership was by invitation only.
Los Magicos drew on the ancient Mexican religion and history for its foundation and atmosphere. Quetzalcoatl, "The Feathered Serpent God" of the ancient Aztecs is represented on its membership pin.
Members include hollywood celebrities such as Harold Lloyd, Chester Morris, Orson Welles and Bert Kalmar.
Based on reports in Genii, the group seems to have disbanded in the 1960s.
