2012 was an amazing year for Harry Houdini Circumstantial Evidence (HHCE) for a number of reasons:
Got to see most of the Grim Game and its exciting escape sequences at the Margaret Herrick Library:
- The Grim Game Core Experience
- I’ve Seen Most of The Grim Game
- Forty Winks by the Star Reporter
- Stone Walls and Chains Do Not Make a Prison – For Houdini
- Over the Edge With Death Below and Imprisionment Above!
- The Bear Trap
Discovered some amazing Grim Game advertisements:
- Motion Picture News Advertisement that includes Lobby Display photos of The Real Aeroplane used to advertise “The Grim Game”
- Cinema Chat Advertisement that includes 5 images (298-4, 298-7, 289-21, 298-22, 298-25), 3 of which have not been published since 1920 as far as I know.
- Variety Advertisement with a unique date (9-19-1919) and page number (52)
Got to meet some Houdini icons (Subject Matter Experts) in person:
- John Cox
- Arthur Moses

And last but not least, HHCE acquired a number of amazing ads, brochures, and cards from the Grim Game.
In a couple of days (i.e., January 1st, 2013), I will post plans for HHCE in 2013.
I hope you find many more items in the coming New Year. It’s always a pleasure to visit here.
Thanks Kevin! That means alot to me. May we both find more treasures in 2013.
