If anyone happens to have greyhound handicapping books written by Jack Fink or Dick Herter, I would be interested in buying. Please drop me a line here or via e-mail. Thanks

Jim,

There's an ebay auction on now for "Dick Herter's Complete Handicapping Works", thought you might be interested.

Thanks for taking the time to post the link. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, this is the only book I have of Herter and get this...I bought it recently at GBC for 3.00. Wonder how much they will pay on ebay?

Again...thanks for trying.

Last one the same seller sold went for $35! You should keep an eye on the auction. If it goes for that number again you could sell it for a nice profit if you want.

How is the book? Must be something interesting in I guess for you to ask for more.

Greyhound racing was my first pari-mutuel love and I used to have several books by both authors. Actually my Dad had most of them years ago, but after many moves, they are lost.

Anyhow, I am feeling a bit nostalgic plus I have now found a couple of internet sites where I can play the dog races. As I get to Florida most every year, I have not forgot how to handicap, but I could use a refresher.
