HOUDINI, Harry (Erik Weisz, 1874 – 1926). Houdini TLS on Pictorial Letterhead. Dated Feb. 28, 1912, Houdini writes to one Mr. Hersfeld, stating in part, “Sorry that I did not get see more of you at Hammersteins [sic], but you “vanished” before I knew what was what.” The second post-script of the letter gives the reader information about one of his famous publicity stunts: “I am advertised to break jail in Trenton N.J. in two weeks time and if you would like to see a really marvellous “escape” let me know and I’ll get you in to see it take place. H.H.” Boldly SIGNED in pencil, “Harry Houdini.” Matted and framed to 17 x 23”, with a later photograph of Houdini inspecting leg irons and chains on the ground before him. Old folds and wear visible, but not examined out of frame.
