Description
From [link] :Houdini adored his wife and enjoyed leaving her love notes and poems around their Harlem brownstone at 278 West 113th Street. He affectionately called her his “Precious Lump of Sweetness,” “Sweetie Wifie, Mine,” and “Darling One and Only.” Houdini signed these notes with various pet names including “your popsy” and “Houdinsky.” Houdini biographer Kenneth Silverman included this note from the magician to his wife in the book Houdini!!!

have washed out this glass,
and am on my way to business.
