Kevin Connolly of Houdini Himself has made a specialty of collecting Houdini cards for an upcoming catalog. Maybe we'll see these rarities included?

Spanish Houdini trading cards
Here's an interesting set of Houdini trading cards from Spain that recently sold on eBay. Released around 1958, these belong to a series that, according to the seller, "speaks of epic men's world records." Notice that the Water Torture Cell card uses a still from the 1953 movie, Houdini. That movie also seems to have inspired the cards depicting Houdini trapped under the ice.
