I recently went through a Houdini scrapbook compiled by Houdini’s personal friend, Quincy Kilby, and thought I would share items related to his movies in chronological order.

• Movie Related Correspondence with Quincy Kilby – November 7 1918
• Movie Related Correspondence with Quincy Kilby – November 14 1918

And now we look at letters from 1919 and The Grim Game:

• Movie Related Correspondence with Quincy Kilby – March 7 1919
• Movie Related Correspondence with Quincy Kilby – April 12 1919 and April 24 1919

Today, I share July 12 Letter:

Dear Q.K.,

My wrist getting along okay, July 20^th, will try and finish the last few scenes, and return to New York leaving on or about July 25^th.

…

…

The Grim Game will be finished next Sunday, my wrist will be strong enough to do the finishing stunts.

Tom Jefferson is at work in another studio.

Will try and see him before we leave.

Must close bes of all good wishes, from Mrs. Houdini and your pal to you all

Houdini

P.S, …

We will remain here until on or about July 26^th.

After that New York Address.
