It's time to wrap up 2018, which was a truly amazing year for Houdini. This year saw the sale of 278, four major museum exhibitions, new plays, books, graphic novels, TV appearances, and an assortment of discoveries and special events. For me the year brought memorable Houdini adventures in
Las Vegas,
Catalina,
New York,
Baltimore,
Fort Worth,
City of Industry and
here at home. I'm overwhelmed by how much joy and generosity Houdini brings into my life. I feel very grateful to have stumbled on this "hobby" 43 years ago.
I thought the below from the
Tampa Bay Times, which appeared 80 years ago yesterday, was a good way to end the year. So Bessie and I will take our "rest", and we'll see everyone back here on January 1st for what I expect will be another huge year for Houdini.
Have a very Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you John. Thank you for all you do. I look forward to what you will write about in 2019.
