Hey all -

I am clearing out some clutter and have a complete hardback copy of the Jinx (all three volumns) and want to sell them. Anyone have any idea what these go for? I tried to use the search feature but it seems to be down.

No idea, but! it may be worth dropping martin breese a line - his email is on his site...www.martinbreese.com...

not only does he sell magic, but he also deals in books and first editions and so on...he may be able to give you a price...cant promise, but he's a good guy...

I must admit at first I thought this would be easy to determine but none of the places I thought would have them appears to. Might be worth more than I thought .

The Jinx, 3 volumes on eBay

Misdirections has the 3 book volumes advertised at $90:

Though I'd contact them first to make sure that they truly are in stock, otherwise I'd go with the eBay price as a better estimate.

So if I offered them for $100 shipping included you think that would be fair?

They do not have them. I asked.

1000 copies are being printed and it will at $60 (preorder - $50), here:

I was unaware that Ray sold the publication rights to Kaufman. I was aware that he had sold many of his rights to Meir though.

Pi314: The New Jinx is an entirely different publication, comprised of material contributed by magicians in the 1960s and edited by Bill Madsen. The Jinx, edited by Ted Annemann during the 1930s, is what we're talking about here. And I'd say $100 for the set is a great price.

Best,
Neil

Does anyone know if the Recent reprint maintains the original typography and layout? I would like a copy that is as true to the original in appearance as possible.

David:

Are you referring to the reprint of THE NEW JINX?
I don't think the the orginal JINX has been reprinted.

Tony

Ahhhhh, apologies for the confusion, thanks for clearing that up Tony.

Oh! I must have skimmed the text (sorry). Huge difference between the original and the new JINX.

A CD-Rom version of the "old" JINX exists too. I've seen it once or twice on eBay
