I'm looking for a copy of a book called 'Into the Silk' by Ian Mackersey.

This book appears to be on a par with rocking horse shit for rarity and as such, I have only found one reference to it anywhere and the cost was ludicrous.

So, my task to you, should you choose to except it: Find a copy of this book and let me know where and how much it is.

I will be shocked if anybody finds it at a price I'd be willing to pay.

Your computer will self destruct in 5 seconds :twisted:

Well I did a quick search, seems to be out of print in the US. I checked ebay also and not a thing.

 

[I think not]

Well I'll be a son of a b...... Amazon UK has it for 220 pounds 8O

I didn't realize this book was so old, published in 1956? Well I guess I accepted the mission and my 5 seconds are up.

Exactly!

I was kind of hoping for a couple of quid in a Thrift store.

 

[I think not]

Well Frap I found something a bit more reasonable, not a couple of quid as you want it though.

Into the Silk

40 Quid. Still too much I'm afraid.

Thanks for your help though.

out of print books

The above site has it for $79.95 US.( = 42.05 pounds )

Have you maybe tried some New Zealand sites? Being that he's from there they might have hidden stores of it.

I've had good luck with out-of-print books from Crabcoll:
