Vernon and Houdini

Postby Chris Deleo » April 21st, 2010, 9:01 pm

couple of questions regarding the night Vernon "fooled" Houdini

What year was it?

Was this the first time Vernon and Houdini met?

Who introduced them?

How many times did Vernon perform "the trick"?

Thanks

Yes--I believe it was the first time Vernon met Houdini. If you read the David Ben biography of Vernon, it will become clear.
