Description

Lithographed tin sign reproducing the Houdini handcuff-king poster: the escape artist chained at center on a red keystone panel, ringed by shackled wrists, cuffs and padlocks on olive ground. Banner lettering reads "EUROPE'S ECLIPSING SENSATION." Maker's copyright line at lower right, pre-punched corner mounting holes, felt pads on the reverse.
