But you are selling on eBay through a link, thus comments and questions are allowed.

Thank you Richard for the clarification.

Sold for $1277.52 You never answered Mr. Charming's question. I am curious also. I did answer his question but privately as i though you was not allowed to answer question regarding items being sold. I am in the process of selling a large collection of Marlo archives that i obtained from Gabe at Po...

Wow!, he is wonderful, my second love is playing the piano. I actually have not been doing any magic for the last few months because of it! ;) I seem to go from Magic then music and back again. As i get older i seem to spend more time playing piano and keyboards. Two things i love but not enough tim...

Uh, what is your line of work?

Antiquarian and rare book dealer

I will just add that obviously if the annotation's are made by a well know magician it does change me above statement greatly.

Christopher1979

You would pass out if you saw the books I have written in. The funny thing is that to another magician, or my son should I be so lucky that he takes up this hobby, my annotations add value to the reader but I guess not to eBay. That's how I look at it. I understand Christopher's rationale (especial...

I am sure i would.

Christopher1979

I have these books, and quite an extensive library of most of the major books published in the last 35 years. I write in all of them. I write in the margins, I cross-reference variations, I rate each effect I read with a star system to avoid having to re-read the book to find what I considered the ...

Christopher1979

Fair point. Bouncing off of that: The thing about these books is that it seems clear that once Mr. Thompson decided to release the good stuff, he wanted it to be out there, not limited to just a selected few (as long as they are serious students and can pony up the $300 presumably). Accordingly, pr...

Since it looks like this set is going to sell well over retail, I suspect that there is going to be a deal to be had when several more folks seeking to turn a quick profit put their copies up for auction right after this one. This, coupled with the spreading word of the second printing, would seem ...

Christopher1979

All, just to keep basic information about these fantastic books I got an email from Julie Eng confirming that the first print was 1500 copies. For you collectors out there, the reprint will have "First Edition, Second Printing" on the copyright page to designate the difference between the...

Q. Kumber wrote:I believe the first printing was 1,500 - as it was mentioned somewhere that was the amount of fly leaves Mr. Thompson signed.

Wow, i didn't expect so many!.

Christopher1979

That is a great point. It never even occurred to me that it could only mean the 1990's.

Christopher1979

Well said, i have to think that this is the very tip of the iceberg. Unfortunately Youtube has 1000's of videos of self proclaimed "Magicians" or "Sleight of hand experts ". None of which has an ounce of talent and end up just exposing a trick for no reason. It's either that of l...

Christopher1979

I have a feeling that the bidders are not aware of the "second printing". I just received my copy yesterday and let me say that $295 is a great deal for this wonderful two volume set. It would be interesting to know how many copies were printed for the first run? I spoke to James Alan at M...

I have just acquired a first edition Professional Card Magic by Cliff Green in excellent condition and from the library of Col. Dr. Harlan Taylor. I believe you bought that copy off of me!. It is a wonderful book and the only reason i sold it was i just bought a copy in "New" old stock co...

Hi, I'm looking for some material that I know rarely comes up for sale so I thought I would collect them all together an offer $100 for any of the following titles, with the obvious caveat that I would entertain any reasonable figure above the price I'm offering depending on title and condition.

Christopher1979

Alas you only have to reveal part of the secret for laymen to be satisfied that they know all there is to know. Come to think of it I don't think I would relish rushing through unfamiliar terrain either. I can quite see someone slipping and hurting themselves. I am surprised it hasn't happened alre...

Hi Guy's, Just to let you know i have a massive collection of antique Magic programs, books, packet tricks and magazines being sold on ebay in one large lot.

Christopher, I see you have these up for sale on Ebay. Looks like someone is going to get a good deal! By the way, the four colored dice in the wooden box is Tony Curtis's Die-Abolical , a collectible Magic Wagon item. Hi Brad, Yes, listed them a few days ago, nice little collection. Thank you for ...

It's a neat variation of Chink-A-Chink.
A complete set has four dice and two of the little metal boxes.

Christopher1979

Hi all,

I have a collection of Dice tricks i acquired and just wondered if any of you knew what they were?

Many thanks!

Totally agree, the thing i love about Tony is he did the "real work"

Christopher1979

Wonderful stuff Jason!, i am sure that you agree that Gene Maze's book on bottom dealing has to have some of the best content out there. I have Tony Giorgio's manuscript on the bottom deal also and i have to say i find his bottom deal very difficult to do but he did have large hands.

I agree with you completely but I hardly think this vulgar. Just a bit of playground humour which is a big difference. It’s the sort of thing you would a clown use Vulgar: "lacking sophistication or good taste; unrefined." or "making explicit and offensive reference to sex or bodily ...

If we were living in 1988 no one would even hint that something was wrong with this. Everyone is so over sensitive to EVERYTHING these days.
