See, I happen to own a copy of 'A Magician Among the Spirits' that Houdini has inscribed to Blanche Corelli in 1924. She then gives the book to Dante in 1939 with a long inscription in which she mentions Hermann (although I can't quite make out what she's written there). Dante than annotates and signs a particular paragraph in the book.<br /><br />I always knew this was a pretty nice item. You've made it all the better! :)John Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04391313393222271260noreply@blogger.com
