Some great book deals

Postby Jason England » July 1st, 2011, 3:07 pm

Guys,

I'm liquidating a collection of books for a friend.

Many of these books are damaged at the corners or have scuffed dust jackets (or sometimes no dust jackets at all). But the contents are always in perfectly readable condition.

I've listed them as "reading copies" below with prices adjusted accordingly.

The other list is for books that don't have any damage at all with the exception of minor (normal) shelf wear from being opened and read once or twice. These have been listed as "good" copies.

Shipping will be extra and will depend on what is ordered. Most US shipping will be via USPS Priority flat rate box shipping unless you request something else. Please keep in mind that overseas (or even to Canada) shipping is very expensive for books if you want them quickly. If you're willing to wait for them, then they can be shipped relatively inexpensively.

Email to: jason@jasonengland.com if you're interested.

Here's a few other things for sale.

I have a copy of Riffle Shuffle Systems by Marlo that used to belong to Steve Forte. It's autographed to Steve by Marlo. The autograph was originally to someone else and Steve bought it from that person. When Steve met Marlo in Chicago in the 1980s, Marlo used white-out to cover up the other guy's name and wrote Steve's name in on top of it.

I also have my own personal copy of Riffle Shuffle Systems. This was a copy that was sent to me by Muriel Marlo after Ed had passed away. At first she returned my money and wrote a letter stating that Ed always signed his books and so she didn't feel right about selling me a book. I send the check right back and said it was fine if it was unsigned. This copy was not in a comb-binding (it's stapled) and isn't autographed, but it came directly from Muriel in late November of 1991.

I have a copy of Fulves' Faro and Riffle Technique (the one with the picture from Alice in Wonderland on the cover). The original comb-binding is missing 4 teeth, but could be easily replaced. All original and used to belong to Dan MacMillan.

Lastly I have a copy of Marlo's Magazine Vol. 3. It's an original "Marlo copy" that was made for Steve Forte by Marlo himself. It's autographed to Steve: "Copy #327 To Steve Forte, May this Volume come up to your expectations. Ed Marlo, Dec - 11th - 1982.


Forte Riffle Shuffle Systems: $125
My copy of Riffle Shuffle Systems: $100
Faro and Riffle Technique: $100
Marlo's Magazine: $150

Will combine shipping.

First email or PM takes any item.

Forte Riffle Shuffle Systems on hold.

Jason

PS: Can't believe no one has pounced on Dear Mr. Fantasy, Revolutionary Card Technique, or the complete set of Apocalypse! These are all great books in very good condition!

Agreed Jason.

The Bannon and Draun books are a steal at that price. Both are excellent.

Marlo's Magazine is gone as is Forte Riffle Shuffle Systems.

My copy of Riffle Shuffle Systems is still available as is the set of Apocalypse and Dr. Mr. Fantasy.

Sebastien,

Yes. RCT is set aside for you. Email me your address and I'll see what postage will be. Be advised, I'm leaving tonight for a wedding on Cape Cod and MAGIC Live! starts the day I get back, so I'll be tied up for about a week.
