Count Primo Magri

Count Primo Magri (1849–1920) and Count Rosebud were the stage names of a 19th-century Italian dwarf who married Lavinia Warren, the widow of General Tom Thumb on Easter Monday, April 6, 1885〔(TWO WEE PEOPLE MARRIED; TOM THUMB'S WIDOW BECOMES THE COUNTESS MAGRI ) ''The New York Times'' April 7, 1885〕 at the Church of the Holy Trinity in New York.〔(Some Recollections Mrs. Tom Thumb's Autobiography ), New York Tribune Sunday Magazine, November 25, 1906〕
==Career==
At 2ft 8in tall〔() E. Cobham Brewer 1810–1897. Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (1898)〕 Magri was two inches shorter than Lavinia's first husband. Together they operated a famous roadside stand in Middleborough, Massachusetts, and with their troupe composed of other dwarves as well as people of regular height travelled the world, performing plays such as ''The Rivals'' and ''Gulliver Among the Lilliputians'' before the public and royalty, including Queen Victoria.
Magri's supposed twin brother, Giuseppe (or Ernesto) Magri (1850-?), also a dwarf, used the stage names ''Baron Magri'' and ''Baron Littlefinger''.〔(''The Seattle Telegraph'', June 24, 1892 p. 5; Seattle Press-Times, June 24, 1892 p. 3; The Seattle Post-Intelligencer, June 19, 1892 p. 13; Ibid., June 23, 1892 p. 5. By Greg Lange, February 22, 1999 )〕〔(Bradenburgh Museum—Philadelphia; Thumbiana & Liliputian Opera Company; Royaume de Liliput de Paris )〕〔(University of Washington Libraries )〕〔(House of Deception: Sideshow Performers )〕
While the military and aristocratic titles that P. T. Barnum gave his dwarves were fantasy titles, it is claimed that the Count was given his title by Pope Pius IX.〔() General Tom Thumb and His Circle〕〔() Patt Kelley website〕
The Magris are said to have had very expensive tastes, and were therefore forced to exhibit themselves into old age.〔 He appeared in a 1915 silent film, ''The Lilliputian's Courtship'', along with his wife, Lavinia Warren.〔() Magri on the Internet Movie Database
