Hail to the Dinosaurs!
I have a ton of duplicate books, courses and magazines about strength training, weightlifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding, physical culture, Iron Game history, boxing, wrestling, martial arts, diet, nutrition, and related subjects, and I since I only need one copy of any particular item, I'm going to sell the rest of them.
We're setting up an eBay store to sell them on eBay, but in the meantime, here are some items you might want to grab right now.
All of these items come from the world-famous Dinosaur Training Research Library - and I'll include a letter to confirm this when I fill your order. Thus, you'll have something great to read AND you'll be owning a piece of Iron Game history.

3. Iron Claws
By Michael H. Brown
An outstanding grip development course - combined with a bench press course featuring some really interesting training ideas and special power rack equipment.
Did I say "bench press course"?
It's actually a course to develop a 1,000 pound bench press!
Very few people know it, but this course helped put thick handled barbells and dumbbells on the map.
Originally published in 1974. This is a modern reprint edition published by William F. Hinbern.

4. The Formulator Ultimate Forearm Training System: High Performance Instructional Course Vol. 1
By John Wood and Functional Hand Strength. 8 1/2 x 11, 48 pages. Published in 2006. Very good condition.
This is a detailed guide to one of the most innovative and effective forearm builders ever invented.
Very informative, with tons of great training tips.
Note: John Wood wrote this terrific course at a time when he was carrying the Formulator in his product line. He no longer carries it, and I don't know if the manufacturer is still in business. However, you may be able to find The Formulator on eBay or elsewhere. That said, this is a very interesting course.
Of course, if you already HAVE the Formulator but you don't have this course, then you need the course asap!

Hard-cover. Written by Jeremy Schaap. Published in 2005. I purchased this $24.00 when new. I've read the book once or twice; otherwise, it's been on one of my bookshelves, so it's in excellent condition.
The movie, Cinderella Man, was based on this book.
Read the book, watch the movie, and be inspired to do some serious training.

Forget about the blemishes. This is a terrific book, and it gives you one of the most detailed looks at the history of bodybuilding that you'll ever see. It's very rare and hard to find - but here's your chance to grab it!

11. Hardgainer magazine
Some of the early issues of Stuart Mcrobert's Hardgainer magazine from the late 1980's and early 1990's are almost impossible to find. Not many copies were printed, and very few owners will part their issues.
Sure, you can finds photocopies here and there - but the ORIGINAL issues are as rare as hen's teeth - or, to paraphrase John McCallum, as rare as honest measurements.
But here's a complete set of the first six issues - from my personal library - not copies, but original issues. Good condition.
Now, I know the price looks high at first blush - but remember, these are originals - they're from my personal library - and they're only $20.00 each. If I put them on eBay and started an auction, they'd probably go for much more.
$120 plus shipping and handling
12. Hardgainer magazine
See my earlier comments.
Here's a complete set of all six issues of year two of Hardgainer magazine. Good condition.
$120 plus shipping and handling.
