Today I'm thrilled to share news of a truly incredible find. A hitherto unknown Houdini scrapbook -- which has possibly gone unseen for 83 years -- was recently discovered by an antique dealer in Southern California. I have the full story and lots of pics on my blog.

It really is. The good news is the owner intends to sell it, but he hasn't decided whether to do so via an auction or privately. I can put anyone in touch with him. Just send an email me via my Contact page and I will forward it to him.

Please update us on the final outcome, if it was sold; and who purchased it.
David C. will probably snatch it up. Jerry |

Will do, Jerry. Mike has had a lot of interest from both collectors and auction houses. As far as I know, he hasn't made a decision yet.

Here's your update. This sold yesterday at Potter & Potter for $36,000. Second highest price item in the auction.
