Hardbound Edition – 352 Pages – 8.5" x 11"
Published by D. Robbins | Copyright 1963

Discover one of the most influential magic publications of the 20th century—The Jinx, the brainchild of the legendary Ted Annemann. This hardbound volume collects issues #1 through #50 of the iconic periodical, originally released between October 1934 and 1936.

From card miracles to billets, book tests to brain tests, spirit effects to sleight-of-hand with coins, thimbles, and cigarettes—The Jinx is packed with practical, inventive, and often brilliant material for the working performer. But what truly sets this collection apart is Annemann’s unmistakable voice. His editorial commentary and psychological insights offer a rare glimpse into the mind of one of magic’s sharpest thinkers.

Annemann didn’t just publish tricks—he challenged the way magicians think about their craft. These pages contain not only powerful effects but also musings, methods, and even mysterious hidden messages sprinkled across several issues (see issues #10, 11, 13, and 14 if you enjoy puzzles). It’s no wonder that The Jinx has had such a lasting historical impact—many of today’s classic routines trace their roots back to these very pages.

Though The Jinx eventually ran for 151 issues before concluding in 1941, this early collection represents the foundation of Annemann’s magical legacy.
