Collectors, rejoice!
I’m happy and a bit proud to report that I have just unearthed another Houdini postage stamp. I am not aware of any magic collectors’ sources that have mentioned this stamp so far, but of course I may be wrong.
The stamp was issued in Mozambique, Africa, in 2010 (the year of his passing), as part of a series of eight stamps which depict some Tony Curtis movies. The top left stamp of the set features the movie “Houdini” from 1953, with Tony Curtis in the leading role and Janet Leigh as Bess, his partner and assistant (and back then his wife in real life).
And now go and collect it!
