Description
“The hallmark of a great book is that it grows with you. It’s always there to guide and teach you. You’re continually learning from its pages. And while Theodore Annemann has been dead almost eighty years, he’s
still here talking to us about magic. Unquestionably, Annemann’s Enigma is an aggregate of all his important work condensed down into a single volume. Plus, all the historical research helps paint a picture of a
brilliant, yet afflicted artist. There’s no better way to study the genius of Annemann than right here.” – Lee Asher
“A comprehensive portrait of a man whose influence has been so far-reaching. I love the level of detail – from Annemann’s advertising copy to the personal letters and appearances in mainstream publications, to the family photos of him as a child. It’s wonderful to get a sense of the whole picture of this enigmatic figure. Reading the biography brings the ghost to life, making him human and heartbreakingly fallible. And the book itself is beautiful. Sharply designed, engrossing, rich with detail, a real collector’s item.” – Colin Gedes, producer, Ultra 8 Pictures
Read the Little Egypt Gazette review: “The usual classy Miracle Factory format. A massive hardback collection of Annemann’s biography along with virtually all his writings…”
“A historically significant work. With introductory essays by Max Maven and legendary Marvel Comics illustrator Steranko (also a magician!), this book is a must for any serious student of magic and mentalism. Congratulations to Todd Karr and his Miracle Factory for creating another book that will sell out fast.” – Michael Mode
“Amazing and beautiful book. There is no other book out there that covers so much of Ted and his work.” – London Ervin
