Rullman, Leo. Typed letter from Leo Rullman to Houdini regarding Houdini’s library. New York, Jan. 6, 1918. Rullman writes, “I am writing to confirm the verbal agreement reached by us…regarding the disposition of your surplus stock of books – that is, Duplicates. …It is further my understanding that you will assist the sale of these books by the insertion of autographs and other embellishments as will make them more valuable from a collector’s view point.” An original carbon response by Houdini, unsigned, is attached at the rear, in which he agrees to Rullman’s proposal. The latter torn cleanly through upper third, the former with closed tears at old folds and one handmade correction by Rullman.
