- It’s a real book-sort of. It’s a real modern fake book that can be bought, but it’s not an antiquarian book.

I quite appreciate the fact you also look a bit like Johnny Depp in The Ninth Gate. Well done.
Did Balkan tell you to sell us this "story"? 😂
Until now I thought the bookbinders said "rack paper" which I thought was intended to mean animal skin parchment. Thanks for the correct term.
If I’ve watched the Ninth Gate once, I’ve watched it 20 times! It’s one of my favorite movies, along with War of the Roses and The Devil’s Advocate! 🍿 The thought of the book being real, or not, never even crossed my mind! But I know now. 😊Thanks for clearing that up for us! You rock!
im annoyed that your VanDyke 'goatee' only connects on camera right...
If this is how Dean Corso returned to us from the Ninth Gate then I have no intention of going through it.
Looks like it. LOL.
Is there no book with a different title but similar meaning? So the idea for the movie is not based on a real book? Just wondering if you could speak to any of the books in the pope collection 😀
I have all three copies
The movie was adapted from the novel Club Dumas; 'The Nine Gates', for that novel, I heard, was in large part inspired by Sinistrari's 'De Delictis et Poenis...' Venice, 1700. It is an uber-rare and delectable work, & has a tale surrounding it as sexy as an edition can get: it dealt in large part with sexual sin and daemonology; the author died the year it was published, & it was banned by the Vatican within a handful of years of being published. The work formed the basis of what I believe to be a hoax. Some Frenchman in the late c19 claimed that he'd acquired an original manuscript of Sinistrari's, which he published as 'De Daemonialitate et Incubis et Succubis' in the 1890s. For mine, this bloke just re-worked the chapters under such heads which may be found in the true delectable rarity, 'De Delictis et Poenis'. Come to think of it, though, the author of 'Club Dumas' might have been inspired by 'De Daemonialitate'; but since that is a not-that-hard-to-acquire late c19 edition, and without 'De Delictis' it would not exist, the latter was the fount.
You probably keep a list of fictional books - titles only mentioned in fake books, (books that don’t exist outside of fiction).
How often do you actually get asked for one?
Can U get us a copy of da Neconomicon bound in hooman fwesh?
Thanks bye
People ask you about that all the time? You walk in some strange circles, my friend.😊
In all fairness he runs a rare book store.
@@publiusdeciusmus1483 a most interesting job, no doubt🧐
I'd love to be a fly on the wall for some of their interactions.
You are only saying this because you want to enter the gate instead of us!
Haha. Nice try lcf
Very perceptive!
“Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows”, the Kingdom of Shadows is hell. Try to not end up there.
thanks to predetermination we dont have to worry about that now do we?
