The culmination of Houdini's European adventures and his reign as "The Handcuff King" came in 1904. The year would see him perform the greatest challenge handcuff escape of his career. It was also a unique year in that he only performed in a single country; the United Kingdom.
This post is now retired.
But you will still be able to enjoy the story of Houdini in 1904 with the publication of my upcoming book.
Good info and lead in as I'm trying to leave for New York tomorrow to take in the mirror handcuffs. Are the mirror cuffs in the Copperfield museum exhibit the original from the March 17 HH performance? --Dale from Cleveland
