Phil's calling card

Card, date unknown

Phil's card, with the heading "Unreal Estate Agent & Stock Baroquer" shows a bit of his sense of humor. Recently discovered in his basement was a box of these cards, which is actually the second version of them as you can see here.

Right now we have a limited number of them for sale for $20 each. However, if you have purchased at least the first ten issues of Farmerphile you can purchase a card for only $10. $20.00 (or only $10.00 for regular Farmerphile readers)

If you would like a copy, email Mike now to hold one for you and to make payment arrangements.

$30 may seem like a lot for a brand new paperback, but consider that this book has been long out of print. First paperback printings from 1970 go for $600 and more, if you can even find one, and the handful of hardcover reprints from 1983 start at $100. Over the past eight years doing this website, many people have asked me where they could find a copy of this book as it is the only book of Phil's that they have not read. I don't expect these books to last long.

Here is what one happy Farmer collector had to say about his signed copy of the book:

I received the book today and I have to say I was surprised by the quality of the item. Not only does it look professional but the dust jacket is unique and the art work is superb, even comparable to the exacting standards of the major press. I have to tell you at first I had reservations, being a small press, but seeing is truly believing and it was well worth every cent.

Thanks Mike. It is an item well worth collecting and treasuring....JT
