Here's a photo from the July 27, 1974 Buffalo Evening News showing how the Water Torture Cell was displayed at the Houdini Magical Hall of Fame in its early days. 


Can't say I love the idea of a Houdini mannequin hanging inside this precious prop. But it's certainly preferable to the later water effect that leaked and damaged the cell. This display can also be seen a museum postcard for the 1970s below.
