GREAT BOOKS YOU SHOULD HAVE -- ALTON SHARPE'S EXPERT CARD SERIESEXPERT CARD MYSTERIES and EXPERT CARD CONJURING / EXPERT CARD CHICANERYbooks are from "new-old" dealer inventory, in MINT condition, with no marks or damageBOOK #1 Expert Card Mysteries (Alton Sharpe, 1975, Tannen's 1st ed.) 195 pagesWhen it was published in 1975 by Tannens, Alton Sharpe's Expert Card Mysteries became an instant underground classic, coveted by all the serious card workers of the era. This FIRST EDITION example is in like new, MINT condition, with no marks, bends, tears, or other problems typical of a book from 45 years ago. What Sharpe accomplished in this book was to get the top card workers of the day to contribute strong and inventive effects. The card magic includes a lot of stuff from Marlo and Cervon, as well as Ron Ferris, Ken Krenzel, Jack Avis, and many others. (The photos show the Table of Contents, which gives you some idea of the depth and breadth of card expertise represented here.) (NOTE: the book has a few humorously captioned photos and illustrations sandwiched between the chapters. These include a couple photos with female nudity, which I remember thinking was was a bonus when I first got the book as a teenage boy. I mention this just in case anyone may be offended by these few photos.) BOOK #2ALTON SHARPE, Expert Card Conjuring and Chicanery (two books in a single volume) 205 pages total First published in the 1970's by Tannens, Alton Sharpe's two books on Card Magic became underground classics, coveted by all the serious card workers of the era. This is a D. Robbins re-print of the two books, both in a single volume. The book is Expert Card Conjuring on one side, and turn it over and around to find Expert Card Chicanery on the other side. What Sharpe accomplished in these books was to get the top card workers of the day to contribute strong and inventive effects. The card magic includes a lot of stuff from Marlo and Cervon, as well as Ron Ferris, Jacob Daley, Gene Neilsen, Lou Gallo, plus items from Vernon, Charlie Miller, etc etc. Very important card books for serious card workers.
