Annemann The Jinx Pdf To Excel
The Jinx – Annemann– A mini reviewJust wanted to share my thoughts.I knew I wanted it, but wasn’t sure what to expectI had seen Richard Osterlind mention the jinx on his excellent videos, and that set me wanting to know more.There seem to be two sources; the CD, or the three bound books.I bought the books ( on eBay ). I paid less than $20 a book, and that seems to be about the norm.What I received were three nicely bound, hardback volumes. Each holds about 50 reprinted copies. The original papers were printed in the thirties.
My volumes were printed in about 63, but they still retain the character of that time.So what do you get?Basically, you get, as far as I can tell, The Jinx, issue by issue, bound. I envisaged that I would get tricks and effects, but you get so much more. Annemann’s editorials, display his excellent, witty and sometimes dry humour. A strong sense of right and wrong is displayed by him, and his verbal jousting with those hi disapproves of, is fascinating. But he speaks with much wisdom, and it is difficult to disagree with any of what he says – often debates that continue today!The effects included, are functional in their descriptions.
Many written by Annemann, many not. But all with value.Included are sporadic reprints of business cards. I believe they are intended as examples, as Annemann seemed very anti the inclusion of advertising.I have yet to finish all the volumes, but I feel privileged to read Annemann editorials, effects and advice.Excellent stuff, and what strikes me still, is how much of today’s mentalism, owes itself to Annemann, and the catalyst he was.Mr. Annemann, I salute you. Though I wouldn't have wanted him for a neighbor, I'd have him for a mentor any day.
I dearly love reading his feud with Burling Hull (and Hull's side of it) because of the well-expressed passion on both sides. Jim Sisti referred to him as 'our friend Annemann' on one of the Osterlind DVDs, and Annemann has been a friend to all mentalists and magicians since then.His depression and final end becomes all the more sad. He lived for magic - and that's all he seemed to have in him. If you have a chance, read Abrams' wonderful.Annemann. biography/collection. It's roughly the size of a Volkswagen, and well worth lugging around. (I add wheels.).
I have the Stuart Cumberland eBook, and it does a nice job of updating the Anneman One Man SHow. It seems to be it was about $45 for the eBook, so I would expect a DVD to be above that. But I just found the eBook still on his site at $45.If you don;t already own Annemans one man act, Stuart's updating would be extremely useful. If you already own Anneman's one man act, you may not feel you got as much value.I already had Anneman's One man Show, before I got Stuart's material, and still feel it was a reasonable buy at the price.
