A superb AQS on an album page measuring 7.5 x 4.5 inches. Penned entirely in Houdini's hand, it reads: "Bradford Nov 8/02, Love laughs at locksmiths, So does Harry Houdini”. The proverb Love Laughs at Locksmiths has the same meaning as Love will find a way, and originates from Shakespeare's poem Venus and Adonis ("Were beauty under twenty locks kept fast, Yet love breaks through, and picks them all at last"). In excellent vintage condition, with a small image of Houdini affixed to the page.
The autograph was acquired on November 8th, during Houdini's 1902 tour of North-West England. Records show that he performed between October 27th and November 8th in Bradford and nearby Halifax.
