Hello.
I'm looking for Stewart James' "Marked For Life", which uses Si Stebbins Stack. My question is which book has it? Thanks much in advance. @Jay@ |

"Stewart James in Print - The first fifty years", page 809. And in the "James Files" some more about it: page 2343. Jan

Thanks Jan for a quick reply.
I have a question about "some more about it". Does "JAMES FILES" have NOT "Marked For Life" itself? Which book is the better buy for learning "Marked For Life", "STEWART JAMES IN PRINT" or "JAMES FILE"? @Jay@ |

Definitely "Stewart James in Print" to get the system and a good presentation idea. It uses 2 cards. In the "James File" you'll find an extension or modification using 3 cards. But knowing the original it's obvious. And by the way: It's designed to use the Si Stebbins stack; but if you use a MD (and e. g. reverse counting the bottom half followed by one perfect out faro...) it's even (far) stronger, as there is nothing to see when you spread the cards. And it's not more difficult. Jan
