Topic: Houdini in Chicago

Message: Posted by: Allan Given (Mar 19, 2005 04:24PM)

Hi there! Does anyone have any information on when and where Houdini performed in Chicago? I know he was on the midway at the 1893 Columbian Exposition, and was sealed in a giant envelope at one Chicago show, but I have not been able to find much more info other than that. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! Allan

You might want to see Frank Koval's books, The Houdini Diaries. They are 5 spiral bound books and they follow Harry step-by-step from 1896(?) to 1926. You also might want to post this in "All Tied Up" section. There may be someone there to help too. Good Luck, Kevin
