No attempts at editing Erdnase's words or changing the book's layout have been made in order to retain the book's charm.

The HOUDINI Journal

 


I'm a big fan of journals. They are a great place to jot down ideas, sketches, and even record passwords. I have a Nikola Tesla journal that I like, but it is pretty generic. I wish there was a Houdini journal and not just one with his picture or a poster on the cover. Sadly, there isn't one. So, I decided to create one myself.

This hardcover Houdini Journal includes 75 photos of the great man himself, along with a lightly ruled blank page to jot down ideas, sketch illusions, or simply record your own magic moments. Take a look at the video below to give you an idea of the body pages.

Carry your Houdini journal around with you wherever you go, ensuring your ideas are never forgotten. This journal makes a great gift for yourself or anyone who buzzes with creativity and loves the mystique and magic of Harry Houdini.
