Unpublished Houdini: Confidence

Welcome to Unpublished Houdini. In this series I share a new never-before-published photo of Houdini every week from our generous Hinson Endowment.

For this Halloween week, how about this stunning unpublished portrait shot of the man himself. This image of Houdini was probably taken around 1904 and just seems to capture the full mystery, majesty, and, above all, confidence of Harry Houdini. Hey, if your job is to escape death every day, you better be confident! Looks like he is.

"The sun shines for me everyday."

Next Monday we'll be giving Harry the week off and I'll share an unique shot of the other Houdini...
