I own the complete set of individual booklets... and apparently one volume was never printed.

Thanks, Pete, do you know which one was never printed?
It appears the missing pages are the end of Number Twelve and the beginning of Number Thirteen. |

It appears that I have the 1994 2nd edition not the original from 1985. There's no copyright page so I wasn't sure what year it was published. I just saw that Hammond wrote a second foreword and dated it 1994. So does anyone own this book? It's a large book measuring 8 1/2 " by 11 1/2 ".

I have Volumes 1-14, that I acquired many, many years ago from noted book collector, Loyd Jones. No. 9 is missing, but Jones told me No. 9 was never published. These were probably printed in the 1040s or maybe before?
Can anyone confirm this?

Pete, here's what the aforementioned Willane book says about Number Nine. "Willane never published Number Nine in his series "Methods for Miracles." It was announced more than once, but Willane was never quite satisfied with the manuscript. On his death, this effect was purchased by Goodliffe for ABRACADABRA and, edited by Fabian, it appeared in Volume 22, numbers 550 and 551, of that magazine. It is reprinted here by kind permission of Goodliffe Publications Limited."
It goes on to detail "Willane's Intimate Sponge Ball Routine." It's an interesting routine quite off the beaten path of most such routines. |
