Houdini Staightjacket from Pawn Stars was created by mattr
In case you are not familiar with the show, Pawn Stars is about a Las Vegas pawn shop where people bring in interesting items and the shop offers to buy them. Someone had brought in a straightjacket reportably used by Houdini. Pawn Stars brought in Murray who was able to validate it by comparing it to one worn by Houdini in a photo.
The owner of the straightjacket turned down an offer of $25,000 for the item (he was holding out for at least $30,000)
Now he has it listed on eBay:

Looks like the guy is more interested in money than in magic history 
....
Joking! I can fully understand that a similar piece of apparatus can be of enormous value!

Hi Pier, long time, welcome back...Reportably, the owner of the shop, has said that this is the item he regrets most for not buying.
