Four Early ALSs from S.S. Baldwin to Harry Houdini.

Item Details

Description

[Houdini, Harry (Ehrich Weiss)] Baldwin, Samri S. Four Early ALSs from S.S. Baldwin to Harry Houdini. Written between January – May of 1898, before Houdini scored his first great success in Europe that launched his career, Baldwin writes to Houdini on personal and professional matters: "I am going to organize a minstrel show specialty combination…Suppose I can use you and Mlle. H--. What is your lowest [salary]?" "…was too ill to go on, so closed. Loss $1900." "Rec'd your lithos. Very nice." (This latter note likely refers to Houdini's famous King of Cards lithograph.) "Don't break your wife's neck in the Trilby act. She may need it." Four separate sheets of 8vo stationery, including letterhead for the Baldwin Humanitarian Association. Some chipping and holes, two original cover fragments affixed to separate letters. Fascinating correspondence from early in Houdini's career.
