The James File (Deluxe Edition with Memorabilia)

This is the specially bound deluxe sets of The James File available, numbered and signed by Allan Sleight, and comes in a sturdy slipcase. Also included is a VHS tape of Stewart James in a 1987 performance, and 34 additional facsimile pieces of rare James-related memorabilia.

Within these volumes are meticulously described 556 tricks and routines conceived by Stewart James. Of these, 478 have not been published before. Many of the creations of this extraordinary man appearing here for the first time are brilliant, some are transcendent. And of the 148 choice variants of his inventions created by others, 74 have not seen print before.

This set is in pristine as-new condition (upon receipt, each book was placed inside an archival book jacket cover for extra protection).
