The photo was listed twice for $89 and did not sell, probably because this doesn't look much like Nathan. Below is a shot of the Weiss brothers probably around 1910. Nathan is the heavyset brother on the end.

What do we think? Is this Nathan? If not, why the writing on the back?
Unless they got the year wrong, but still, doesn't look much like him.
ReplyDeleteI could have the year wrong on that pic of Harry and his bros. It's undated, but Harry's hair looks 1906ish. But it could be later.
DeleteThere's grey in Houdini's hair so I upped it to approx. 1910.
DeleteLooking at Leopold up close what's up with his lower lip?
ReplyDeleteHard to tell on account of the different angle and the mustache, but both men have similar eyebrows. My gut says it's him, with a good couple of years retracted.
ReplyDeleteWho is bill? As a fan of Harry Houdini history, I didn't know Harry had a sibling named Bill.
ReplyDeleteHe did! Bill or William Weiss was born Gottfried Vilmos Weiss in Budapest in 1872. He died in 1925.
