It will interest you to know I met Mr. Damon in the book shop of Mr. Schloss who is the proprietor, I believe, of the North Node. Shall not tell Mr. Schloss of any purchases Mr. Damon made, but he was there when I gave Damon your address and that’s how he heard of you. Hope you will sell him your books. Have been away over the 4th and this is the first letter I am writing.” In the lower left, Houdini adds a short handwritten postscript which reads, “Hope Mrs. Weiss is feeling alright.” Double-matted and framed with a photo of Houdini in shackles to an overall size of 19.5 x 12.5. In fine condition, with intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, a mild shade of overall toning, and text a shade light. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
