USDMendoza Portfolio No. 1 by John Mendoza
During a lecture tour of Europe in the early 1980’s, John Mendoza was shown many amazing tricks and moves by his hosts. He took the best of these, plus some by his American friends, and published them in this book. Long out of print, we have a few new copies left. Here are some of the contents:
