THE NEW YORK TIMES, January 9, 1929

* Harry Houdini's spirit contact w/ wife ?

Page 3 has one column headings that include: "REPORTS MESSAGE OF HOUDINI DECODED" "Widow Says Medium in Trance Gave Key Words Left by the Magician" and more (see) Coverage on the claim by the late Harry Houdini's wife that she has contact with him in the after World. I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 64 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Nice condition.
