I was able to enjoy the added bonus of Houdini Duffy! It was fascinating to watch what it may have been like to see Harry perform up close back in the day, with a great, uplifting message to all in attendance. I was able to view the Copperfield exhibit alone, similar to being alone in some rooms in 278, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732721553418878547.post-82662027328273308242018-09-15T06:53:01.584-07:002018-09-15T06:53:01.584-07:00I considered that, John, but the other items in th...I considered that, John, but the other items in the display didn't appear distorted in that way. Possible though, I suppose, and you're right, it doesn't seem logical. I'll have to take a closer look at my pictures.

You sure the glass enclosure wasn't playing trick with your eye?
