Description

President Houdini signs a 1922 Society of American Magicians membership card

Original colorful Society of American Magicians membership card, issued to H. B. Linaberry for the year 1922, 4 x 2.5, signed in black ink “Harry Houdini” as president of the Society. Creatively double suede matted and framed, with a photo of Houdini in shackles and a biographical plaque, to an overall size of 17.75 x 31. Signature a bit light and slightly indistinct against background, otherwise fine condition. Founded on May 10, 1902, in the back room of Martinka's magic shop in New York, the Society expanded under the leadership of Harry Houdini during his term as National President from 1917-1926. Fantastic association between the oldest magical organization in America and the world’s most famous magician. Oversized. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
