HOUDINI, Harry (Ehrich Weisz). Houdini Typed Letter Signed. Dated December 17, 1910 and addressed to Hereward Carrington, Houdini writes, in part, “I suppose you know that Chung Ling Soo has a glass lantern that he has been doing a long time. If I am not mistaken Howard Thurston can tell you all about same.” He also describes the fickle nature of success, mentions a future meeting, and in a postscript, discusses spirit mediums: “I received a postal card from Mr. Fielding who informs m[e] that all his sittings with Paladino were rank failures. He caught her cheating ALL THE TIME.” One 4to sheet with original mailing cover (stamp torn away), Signed in pencil “Harry Houdini.”
