This appears to be an original Polish biography of Houdini by Paul Sherman (as opposed to a Polish translation of one of the well-known english language biographies). Can't say I've seen many foreign language originals in my day.
Some further detective work reveals the book is 284 pages, a paperback, the publisher is Videograf II, and the release date was April 29, 2010. I can't find any indication whether the book is illustrated or not.
With shipping the total price comes out just under $20 U.S. Going to think about this one...
UPDATE: The same publisher appears to have released another original Houdini book in 2009.
The auction appears to have been ended early.
