It reads, in full, including original typographical errors, “Just to inform you that at [last] nights meeting you proposed you for membership in Society of American Magicians, as you qualify with your vanishing Doglet, and Spirit etc and so on. Drop in when the “Ghost moves you.” Regards, [SIGNED] Houdini.” Penciled at the top of the letter in Houdini’s hand is the phrase “Rush letter.” Typed on a sheet of Houdini’s printed letterhead bearing his New York address, the missive framed together with two later photographs of the magician and an engraved presentation plaque. Overall dimensions of 17 x 29”. Not examined out of frame.
