Hi All,
It's been a while since I posted around here but I still check in from time to time. I wanted to point you all to my own personal Cups & Balls Bibliography that I have compiled from many sources over the years. I have now posted it publicly. You can grab it here: https://archive.org/details/cup-play-master

Feel free to use it as research or add to it for your personal needs. This compiles not only Cups & Balls routines but Chop Cup and any variation I could find of Cup based magic. Nearly 1100 entries. Many blanks and missing bits of info. I am not looking to maintain this list however if you use it in print please at least add a credit line.

thanks all!
Todd Paoletti

I forgot to add this list would not be nearly as thorough without the generous time and tips many of the users here in Ever So Slightly.

Have you compared this with Laurence O's of several years ago?
Interesting to see what new development there are.

Hi Todd:

Its good to hear your voice! it's been a long time. Like you, I don't check in here very often either but when I do, it's always a pleasure to run into fellow travelers like yourself from years past. I hope you're well. And let me say again, as I have before, what a splendid contribution you have made to magical literature, especially C&B literature, with your bibliography. Its an extremely useful and important reference resource.

Stay well, my friend!

Sean
