I was just wondering if any of the book enthusiasts here might have an idea of how much a mint, 1st edition, signed copy of 'Art & Artifice' would be worth?

Thanks,
Andy

I know an unsigned one goes for $35-50.

I appreciate the feedback, but this book has been out of print for years and only 700 were ever printed as far as I know. I can't imagine it being worth $35-50.

How about $75-$85? A unsigned one sold for $76 on Ebay last week.

It all depends on how much demand there is for the book.

I bought a copy from borders for $15!!! wasn't a first edition mind you. As far as I know, they've started publishing it again, so it's no longer out of print.

This is just what a magic book collector loves to hear, the word "REPRINT" and no longer "OUT OF PRINT".

The effect is the important thing, how you achieve it is not.......

This is probably the softbound version.
