I have a playing card that is alleged to be signed by Bess Houdini (it's signed "Beatrice Houdini") Is it possible to get this authenticated inexpensively?

I have a small collection of playing cards signed by magicians, among other magician's memorabilia.

[Mar 9]Houdini's wife Bess held a sΓ©ance every year to try and see him for 10 years after he died

Source (Wikipedia)

"Before Houdini died, he and his wife agreed that if Houdini found it possible to communicate after death, he would communicate the message "Rosabelle believe", a secret code which they agreed to use. This was a phrase from a play in which Bess performed, at the time the couple first met. Bess held yearly sΓ©ances on Halloween for ten years after Houdini's death, but Houdini's spirit never appeared. Bess, grieving and in need of some attention, did stage a false contact which she later recanted.[13] In 1936, after a last unsuccessful sΓ©ance on the roof of the Knickerbocker Hotel, she put out the candle that she had kept burning beside a photograph of Houdini since his death. In 1943, Bess said that "ten years is long enough to wait for any man."

She did all this even though he spent part of his life proving spiritualists were fakes. English Singer/Songwriter Kate Bush even wrote a song from Bess' point of view.

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.
