HARDEEN (Theo. Weiss). Group of Hardeen Programs and Ephemera. 1910s ? 60s. Including the pitchbook Life and History of Hardeen (poor condition, spine taped, wraps torn and chipped); two 1940s-era Hardeen Christmas cards, one signed ?Love and Kisses, Theo?; a program for Hellz-a-Poppin? at New York?s Winter Garden, featuring Hardeen in the cast; a 1914 engagement announcement of Henrietta White?s sister to the ceremony for Ella Schoenberger and Harry Gross, sent back to members of the extended Houdini family, the verso inscribed and signed by Hardeen in purple ink; and a prayer card from the funeral of Hardeen?s wife, Elsie. Condition varies, but generally good to fair. Nice lot. Provenance: passed to the current owner by descent from Houdini?s brother, William Weiss.
