"We used to set up at the National Sports Collectors Convention, where we met Robert - he was also set up displaying his work. I commissioned Robert to paint a Babe Ruth piece for me. Impressed by his work -- and being a life long magician and magic collector -- I asked him to paint a HARRY HOUDINI piece for me. This is what he came up with, and it looks incredible!! The canvas painting measures 24" x 36" inches."
We've had it safely stored away since we got it (probably 15 years). Never had it framed or put on display. This Harry Houdini painting deserves to be displayed and not hidden away!!
The seller has a buy-it-now price of $3,895, but has also activated the "Best Offer" option. The sale runs until March 24 (nice touch). You can check out the auction page here.
