0:33 Promo for “The Great Houdini” (originally titled “The Great Houdinis”) which starred Paul Michael Glaser (then costarring on “Starsky and Hutch” with the late David Soul) as Harry Houdini and Sally Struthers (then starring on “All in the Family”) as Harry Houdini‘s wife Bess Houdini.
Would have just turned 18. Blast from the past. Local media personalities Lee Major, Brian Swain and brother Lou doing commercials. I remember Krazy Kelly's.
