The photoplay edition of Houdini's 1918 serial
The Master Mystery by Arthur B. Reeve and John W. Grey sold recently
on eBay for $545. Copies of
The Master Mystery do show up on eBay from time to time, but it's rare to see one that's still in the original dust-jacket.
Reprints of
The Master Mystery can be purchased on
Amazon. An eBook version for the
Kindle is currently available for free. Unfortunately, none of these modern reprints think to feature Houdini on their covers.
What a difference a DJ makes. Congrats to the winner.
ReplyDeleteYep, DJ and condition is everything.
DeleteBTW, the last time a copy with the DJ appeared on eBay, I won it! I've long had a copy with a reproduction DJ. I was thrilled to finally add a real one to my collection.
