1926 Harry Houdini, "Iconic Magician Near Death" Rare Vintage Photo

Amazing piece of magic and Harry Houdini history!  

Here’s a Very Chilling Houdini TYPE I antique photo that we’ve never seen in our 40 years collecting.   

One of his last photos that the Press uses to report on Houdini’s grave illness, which unfortunately he would succumb to three days after this news report was published. 

1926 Photograph that was used to announce that magician Harry Houdini was near death and it was feared that he would not recover. The prediction would prove accurate and Houdini would pass away from the injury listed on the back paper caption. The image itself is a slightly earlier file photograph of Houdini and showing him from one of the instances where he disproved a spiritualist and proved them as a fraud. Images of Houdini are tough to find and this is one of his greatest we have ever handled in any form. Issued by the Keystone View Company and stamped on the back with a nice paper caption as well, this grades almost perfect and the clarity is off the charts.
Breath-taking Type 1 photo

*Date stamped on back "October 28, 1926" three days before the once seemingly immortal Master of Death defying miraculous feats would succumb to a ruptured appendix.

* Nearly 100 years after his Halloween Day death, magic experts are STILL debating and speculating, but not sure, HOW Houdini did his super human escapes!
