Houdini, Harry. Harry Houdini Typed Postcard. London: Mar. 16, 1904. Typed postcard from Houdini, writing from the London Hippodrome to English magician Arthur Buckle in Manchester. In full: ?Am very busy, have a very big task Tomorrow, and do not feell [sic] very much like writing. Regarding me being a Mason, I regret to inform you that I am not a Mason, and hope some day to belong to that Order. I do not belong to any secret order, and am a member of the S. of A. Magicians, and an Artist club in Germany. Regards/Houdini.? A few characters added in graphite at conclusion of last line, rubbed and faint, but presumably in Houdini?s hand. Creases and rounded corners.
