Annemann: The Life And Times Of A Legend

Product detailed description

Theodore Annemann is one of the most famous figures in mentalism. His creations—both the principles and the tricks themselves—have inspired thousands of mentalists worldwide. Although it may not be obvious at first glance, his work is still relevant today, as it appears in the repertoires of many mentalists and magicians, including card magicians.

Annemann's book Practical Mental Magic is often the first choice for those who want to pursue mentalism. Thanks to the work of Max Abrams, the book Annemann: The Life and Times of a Legend offers a complete overview of Annemann's life, work, and journey through the world of mentalism. It is a collection of all of Annemann's published and many previously unpublished works.

His magic tricks are discussed in great detail through added commentary. You will learn hundreds of tricks that he created during his short but busy career. These include mentalist tricks and card tricks.

The book also offers a glimpse into Ted's photo album on more than 80 pages. For example, you can see thorough documentation of his breathtaking "Bullet Catch" act, in which he catches a fired bullet in his mouth.

The book also includes a set of instructional videos and PDF instructions. In them, Richard Osterlind and Peter Turner will teach you a total of six magic tricks inspired by the creations of Theodore Annemann.
