Here's one from my own collection. This is a beautiful original photograph of Houdini and his brother, fellow escape artist, Theo. Hardeen, aka "Dash" in 1904. It's an uncommon shot.
My pleasure, chiaracat. I figured it was time for a nice photograph. Thanks for being a regular. I love knowing there are people out there enjoying my blog. :)
Thanks, Bruce. It's an uncommon photo, but not unknown. I know it appears in Dunninger's 'Monument to Magic', and I feel like I've seen it in one other place, but I can't think of where. There's also a photo taken during this same session in Secret Life.
I always read your blog, thanks for this space for houdini's addicted! This photo is really cool

ReplyDeleteThat's such an awesome photo of the both of them. They both look so suave and "dash"ing. OHHH, that was bad. :p
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, that's one of the reasons I love this blog...so many things I've never seen before, and nary an uninteresting post! Thanks, John!
Thank you, Beth. :)
