WILD ABOUT HARRY: Going ape over Houdini


Here’s a fun clipping from the May 7, 1977, The Observer, about the growing popularity of magic. This was during the second year of my Houdini obsession, so I can attest to its accuracy. I even got one of those cool King of Cards posters! (Still have it.)

The Observer (La Grande, Oregon), May 7, 1977.

May 1977… What else happened that month to make kids go ape? Probably nothing.
