To start the 2023 New Year off, thought I would share a special card with a special message from my personal collection:
The front of the card has a spanish ad for the Houdini Serial, The Master Mystery:
Below is a similiar ad in English:
This card was sent from Holyoke MA to Niagara Falls, NY.
It would have been sent out in the early 1990s:
First Class postage in the US was 29 cents from February 3rd 1991 to January 1, 1995. Prior to that it was 25 cents for the first ounce. In 1995 it was increased to 32 cents for the first ounce.

We owe Sid Radner a debt of gratitude for preserving as many Houdini and Hardeen items as he could.
