Available American Pool Checkers Materials
To my readers;
In response to the many
inquires, over the years, about the availability of Pool Checkers materials, I
have contacted my friend, Mr. J. Myrick Frazier of Detroit, Michigan and asked
him to compile a list of his materials for interested persons. That is what is offered here.
Mr. Frazier, for those who
may not know, attended APCA tournaments for many years just for the sole
purpose of recording, taping, and interviewing players, of the Game, for the
purpose of posterity. His compilations
are offered here for those who have inquired or are interested.
I must add, without the
efforts of Mr. Frazier, that started in the late sixties and carried on for
many years, there are, to my knowledge, very little written material left that
pertains to the Game. It should also be
noted, -since his efforts nearly forty years ago, we play the game daily with
very little attempt to help preserve its legacy and its beauty.
If there are questions about
this info, I can always be contacted at,
chas8171@sbcglobal.net or
just write Mr. Frazier.
