Overview
If magic could ever claim to have a folk hero, his name would be Theodore "Ted" Annemann.
A prolific writer, a prodigious inventor, and profound performer, Annemann pioneered his own iteration of the bullet catch, published Practical Mental Effects-a foundational text on mentalism, and founded seminal magic periodical, The Jinx all before passing away tragically at the age of 34.
In 1992, 50 years after Anneman's flame was extinguished, Max Abrams wrote Annemann: The Life and Times of a Legend, the definitive collection of all things Annemann.
Half biography, half magic book, and paced like a thriller, The Life and Times of a Legend is the complete story of one of magic's most enigmatic figures. Across a breathtaking 622 pages, Abrams guides his readers on an unforgettable journey.
Within this tome you'll find every last article that Annemann ever published (and many that never appeared in print before this book). You'll hear first-hand accounts of his brilliance and get exclusive commentary on his life's work from those who knew him and those who admired him. And you'll be dazzled with breathtaking photos that paint a picture not just of a magician, but of a man.
Now, after years out of print, Murphy's Magic is proud to unveil the definitive edition of Annemann: The Life and Times of a Legend. Each page has been painstakingly pored over, each picture brought to life in stunning high definition, and each individual letter sharpened for a crisp reading experience.
This edition includes original contributions from Peter Turner and Richard Osterlind, two of Annemann's biggest fans. A QR code at the front of the book links to their favorite routines shaped by his work. From Peter, you'll learn electrifying effects like discerning the contents of an envelope sealed within an envelope, a foolproof ACAAN, and how to get a spectator to guess your phone's pin code. Osterlind has volunteered to share three routines from his work on Anneman's Practical Effects!
This is a magic book that's more than just a collection of tricks; it's one of the greatest stories ever told. Start your own unforgettable journey today.
