The code is most likely based upon the code Houdini used.

Houdini and his assistant Bess devised a secret message that was to be used to test the validity of any so-called spirit message coming from either of them, should one or the other pass.

The message was based on both sentimentality and an old vaudeville mindreading routine. The message was, "Rosabelle- answer- tell- pray, answer- look- tell- answer, answer- tell". Bess' wedding band bore the inscription "Rosabelle", the name of the song she sang in her act when they first met. The other words correspond to a secret spelling code used to pass information between a magician and his assistant during a mentalism act. Each word or word pair equals a letter. The word "answer" stood for the letter "B", for example. "Answer, answer" stood for the letter "V". Thus, the Houdinis' secret phrase spelled out the word "BELIEVE".

11 lines = Copperfield

5 lines = Blackstone? or Annie?

7 lines = Henning

5 lines = ?

8 lines = ?

OK so we think that the postcards lines are the names of the people who made each item disappear correct? Can we nail down who made each items disappearance famous?

Only thing I've noticed is the obvious.. So far each name has a double letter....
