Goldston, Will. TLS from Will Goldston to Harry Houdini. July 31, 1925. On his elaborate personal letterhead, Goldston writes a flattering letter to Houdini, stating, in part, “…the Rigoletto Bros. gave me a call and stated that they saw you work in New York and greatly admired the manner in which you presented your act. They say as a showman you stand supreme. When one considers that these words have come from two men you had some misunderstanding with some time ago it is most interesting. This information of course is in confidence.” One 4to sheet, typed on two sides. With a later photograph of Goldston and Houdini, 10 x 8”. Signed “Will Goldston.”
