A Houdini Collector's Dream

...or not
A monument to good taste.
All it needs is a set of antlers.
Is the rest of Mr. Weiss mounted to a plaque on the wall of the adjoining room?
Based upon the look on his face, Houdini doesn't appear too happy with his current predicament.
KING OF CARDS :)

This Houdini Head Mount is currently listed for sale on ePrey.

If you don't have one of these puppies hanging over your bed, glowering down at you while you sleep, you certainly have missed something.

This is the type of acquisition that would move your long suffering, and previously cooperative, spouse to unceremoniously throw you and your collection out into the front yard when unveiled.

I remember KC's post about one of these but this is the first example of this horror I have seen surface since.

The painting and sculpt of Houdini makes it look like he needs a mega-dose of Ex-lax.
