- Lot Description
HOUDINI, Harry (Erik Weisz, 1874 – 1926). Two Stills from The Master Mystery. [Los Angeles, 1919]. Pair of silver gelatin photographs picturing two scenes from Houdini’s serial film. In one, he poses in profile with another man, both looking down on a bird in a cage, resting on the table in a laboratory. Both men wear masks that cover their noses and mouths. In the second, Houdini looks off in the distance as he prepares to run out of a jail cell in. 8 x 10” each, with carbon captions pasted to versos reading “Houdini, the handcuff king, in a scene from “The Master Mystery”, B.A. Rolfe’s fifteen episode super-serial produced for Octagon Films, Inc.” Both curled, with folds and small faults, but good condition overall. Uncommon; the first examples we have encountered.
