Description

Key from the collection of the master escape artist

An original key from the personal collection of Harry Houdini, originally acquired from his brother Hardeen. In 1941, Hardeen Houdini sold 78 of Harry’s locks and keys to collector Paul Harter. Years later, he sent an amazing 60 pounds of keys from his brother’s collection to Harter, with the key being offered here coming from that 60-pound collection, which cost. Key is nicely double-matted and framed with a descriptive plaque and a photo of Houdini in chains to an overall size of 15.5 x 14. In fine condition. RR Auction COA.
