This morning as I drove to work, NPR was talking about Harry Houdini. They played a sound-bite of him describing a new trick and I heard the telling sounds of a cylinder record. I googled and sure enough in 1914 Harry was captured on 6 Edison cylinders in Flatbush, NY. These records are currently owned by magician David Copperfield.

James, I heard that same piece. I remember that they did mention that the recordings were in Copperfields personal collection. I can't say that I remember ever hearing his voice before. I thought it was pretty cool too.
