Yesterday while taking a walk before my "Behind the Bookcase" with Mike Caveney (which went well enough that there's talk of a Part 3!), I noticed that some stores in my neighborhood have reopened after being shut down for Covid-19. I haven't walked into a "non-essential" business for months, so I slipped on my mask and went inside the eclectic
Mystic Museum on Magnolia Blvd. in Burbank. Here's the first thing I saw. Perfect.
This original oil painting was done by
Robert Heckman for a special exhibition on spiritualism. If interested, visit or contact the good folks at the
Mystic Museum. They've open!
Other Houdini related reopenings are the
Catalina Island Museum, the
History Museum at the Castle in Appleton, and the
McCord Museum in Montreal. The
House of Houdini in Budapest is also preparing to reopen soon.

That's great news John! My barber reopened last week so after a three month hiatus I finally look presentable. How did the second talk go. Will you post any details here?
ReplyDeleteSecond talk went great! Super fun. No details to post really. I did showcase a few things I haven't shared yet on WAH. The first of these, "Houdini's forgotten agent", I working on now and will get up soon.
DeleteThat's wonderful! No detail is too small to deserve mentioning!
DeleteI stopped by Mystic Museum yesterday and noticed this wasn't on the wall where it had been, so presumably sold.
