Link: Vanishing Elephant anniversary

Dean Carnegie, Magic Detective, reminds us that it was 93 years ago today that Houdini first performed his Vanishing Elephant Illusion onstage at the New York Hippodrome. Dean has a terrific look back at the effect, along with a nice mock-up poster. Oh if only we could one day discover a real Vanishing Elephant poster.
