One of the best resources for vintage card knowledge. I will definitely be adding this updated electronic version.

I've bought several vintage decks over the last year. I was flying blind. Didn't know if I was getting a good deal or not. Whether it was a 1960's deck, or an 1890's deck . So I ordered this about a week ago. I've already used it a few times. I've been able to check some of my old purchases as well. I didn't do too bad for the most part. This works great on my phone. It will work really nice when I'm down town in the antique stores, doing a little treasure hunting.

Hi Rob - glad it works so well. I have it on Android and it is great. Is yours an IPhone?

Finally downloaded my copy of both books, as well as a number of other fine PDFs from Conjuring Arts.  Looking forward to checking it out - in COLOR!

This combined digital set is a must-have for any collector!

I ordered my set as soon as the email arrived from CARC on January 8th.; and within minutes, I was browsing through these beautiful books.

Thank You for making these digital sets available!

This purchase is a "no-brainer" for anyone who loves cards.

If you haven't purchased this set, but you are reading this, on THIS site, what are you waiting for?

Judy and I would ask that any errors or typos, etc. noticed be sent to us via email or through PCF. Also, we plan to revise the files periodically for corrections, additions, new information, etc.Those who purchased the digital version will be notified that revised files are available and sent a download link.
