Hungary issues an official Houdini stamp

The Hungarian postal service Magyar Posta revealed their new Houdini stamp at The House of Houdini in Budapest, Hungary, today. The stamp commemorates the 150th anniversary of Houdini's birth. The stamp has a face value of HUF 1,270 and was produced in conjunction with The House of Houdini and David Merlini, based on the work of Tamás Ajtai and Barnabás Baticz. The stamp folds open to reveal an image of Houdini. The inside image even includes a hidden lock that is visible under UV light. 

I think this stamp looks fantastic, and I'm thrilled to see Houdini honored in his home country. You can purchase the stamp HERE.

Congratulations to Magyar Posta and The House of Houdini!
