Now, our friend Richard Sherry of Sherry and Krall Magic has manufactured a beautiful reproduction of the Steel Straitjacket. He has produced a limited run of only TEN jackets that can be purchased gaffed or ungaffed. And, as Tony/Houdini says, I'm sure he used "only the very best steel."
If interested, you can find pricing and details on Richard's website or email him at richard@richardsherrysmagic.com.
I read somewhere that the steel straight jacket used in the movie was an actual Houdini prop.
ReplyDeleteDunninger claimed that, but it's questionable.
DeleteI don't see any way out of the ungaffed version of this device.
ReplyDeleteHoudini would just need a short time in his "ghost house"
ReplyDeleteHaha. True!
