That is the plan!

Hey folks- I've got a few books for sale on the Sales board. Keep an eye out for more!
All in Canadian funds.

What has made you sell magicfish? I know a few people parting with their collections recently. I'm selling some also. Just getting old in my case.

Hi Wordsworth, thanks for asking.
I collect books on another subject as well. There is only so much room in the house. I thought I'd sell a few good magic books for two main reasons:
1- create a little more room (for more books?)
2- So others can enjoy them.

I’ve been buying magic books for about thirty years.

Magic of Michael Ammar was the first book I got from a magic shop, then I promptly spent my monthly paper route money over the course of a year or so buying Tarbell.

My most recent book purchase was Out of Control / Totally Out Of Control By Chris Kenner.

Browsers Den auction and used books area are both great places for picking up books, for me. Otherwise I tend to lean on Jeff to get me new books when I need them.

I saw Jeff today.
Picked up the Bammo Flim Flam CONglomeration by Bob Farmer.

Must have just missed you... was in the shop today as well

Hope to see you again soon!
Currently seeking books on mentalism...
Koran's Legacy
Syzygy
Magick
Invocation
Etc.

Add TA Waters big book if you don't already have it along with Becker's Stunners I have Syzgy and has a great variety of material. I booked Lee Earle many years for a lecture when I lived in Nova Scotia. The Koran Book is good (there are a few). Also the Barrie Richardson Trilogy is a must.

Cheers

Hi John, I have the T.A. Waters book, and Koran's Professional Presentations. I also have the Richardson Trilogy- excellent books.

Hey fellas. Hope you are all well. Just picked up a new old book: Cunning Stunts- The Best 50 Pub Tricks and Brain Teasers by Martin Daniels and Ian Alexander.
I bought this from the Browsers Den of Magic in Toronto- where I buy all my books.
This is a little spiral bound beauty full of some great bar stunts. A gem!

Anyone looking for a complete set of Tarbell's?

Managed to find myself a copy of the big ol' Zarrow book! It has been on my wishlist for years and now I can finally sink my teeth into it. For as good as people say it is, there hasn't been as much of a discussion on it that I could find.

Maybe that's the intention though...

I got this one when it first came out. There are some real gems in there.

That's great news to hear! I think I'm most excited about the non-Zarrow shuffle material. I'm curious to see what else his mind came up with!

After this, I think I will start trying to track down the dozen books in Steve Beam's SACT series. That may take me a while.

The Steve Beam books- I only have volume 1. I like it.

I just picked up Outnumbered by John Bannon.

Where is Paul Pacific, Canadian Magician, Missing from many forum for a long time ?

Hey fellas. Just picked up a pristine copy of Martin Gardner Presents.

Good evening gents, I just acquired a copy of the hardbound collectors edition of Vanish Magazine to add to my collection of hardbound periodicals. Interesting material.

Long time lurker of the thread, first time poster

I don't know at what point I cross the threshold of being a collector, but last year I decided to put an effort into cards and walked out of the store with 'The Royal Road to Card Magic'.

Fast forward to a few days ago and my second book – a copy of Lorayne's 'Close Up Card Magic' – arrives in the mail.

I've been reading through 'Close Up Card Magic' and really enjoying the writing. It's been a fun read so far.

Does two books qualify me as a collector? Probably not, but wanted to share my new pickup either way.
