Oh, be still, you fault-finding pickers of nits! Give the guy a break,
I'm sure he's 100% honest. Why, I myself have a pair of Houdini's
skid-marked undies upstairs in my laundry hamper that I'll be auctioning
on Ebay presently. There's a letter of authentication that I just got
done writing and signing, and the opening bid is 68K. One little MOPO
boy's gonna be rakin' in the cash, you can believe that!

This all looks a little suspect to me. A supposed letter, dating from
1937, and stating its provenance is not enough to verify this item.
The crate, it's spray painted lettering and its overly crude
construction and distressed finish, all raise an eyebrow. Plus, this
seller also has things like overly priced scarves, and sculptures for
sale. Say what?
Looks like he raided and obtained remnants from the Spencers Gifts warehouse.
Until authenticated, that chair might be a 25 dollar thrift store
purchase and not a $67K Houdini prop.
