KELLAR, Harry (Heinrich Keller, 1849 ? 1922). Kellar Two-Page ALS to Harry Houdini. Dated August 10, 1917 and written on Kellar?s printed stationery, the note reads, in part, ?I wish I could be at Atlantic City next week ? but it?s a long way from Los Angeles and it?s hot work crossing the Sands of the Desert in August. I have not seen the exposes in Scientific American ? I know that Robinson gave all my tricks away to Hopkins and possibly it is he who gave the secret of Blue Room, &c. I am delighted to know that you are in such splendid physical condition for your big work in the Bahamas. ? It is the auto for me every day. I love to drive my car and enjoy every minute, in fact I am just beginning to live. Good luck to you and God bless you.? The letter is boldly SIGNED by Kellar.
