The Jinx was a Magic Periodical edited and published by Ted Annemann, also its major contributor, in Waverly, New York.

Jinx started in October 1934 and ran for 151 issues. It's last issue was December 15, 1941 just before Ted committed suicide. Originally put out on a monthly basis, it became a weekly publication in October of 1939.

According to Dai Vernon in the Genii 1971 March Vernon Touch column, Henry Christ would often help out with editing the Jinx.

For a short period during the lifetime of the Jinx, Ted Annemann went through what was apparently a "hidden message" phase. In issues #10, 11, 13, and 14 (and probably many others) hidden messages could be found by looking at, usually in reverse order, the first letters of each paragraph, which were printed in larger, heavier type. (See Linking Ring, Vol. 60, no. 10, October 1980, page 70).

Every Jinx file has 48 pages missing as can be seen at the end of #149 and start of #150. They were to be filled with another "Jinx Extra" that was never completed. Ted, before his death, told Walter B. Gibson that he wanted to reprint his "Popular Card Tricks" (1928) as that "Jinx Extra", but died before he could secure the copyright for it. It was eventually published for collectors as those missing pages by Magic Limited in the 1972.

Notable contributions

Some of the routines first published in The Jinx that would become notable include: Miraskill, Sefalaljia, Brainwave Deck and Pseuo-Psychometry.

The Fake Jinx

The "fake" Jinx was published as a spoof by Bob Weill and Ralph Hinkson, but it outraged Annemann. Most copies were turned over to him, which he destroyed. A copy saved by Gene Gordon (editor of Linking Ring) was used by Jay Marshall when he reproduced it in his New Phoenix magazine (No. 317, October 31, 1954, page 72).

The Linx

In the early 1930s, Annemann took out ads in some cheap magazine (Real French Capers and Real Tempting Tales). When Annemann made some disparaging remarks about Burling Hull in an issue of the Jinx, Hull published "The Linx" in 1936. In the one page (and only) issue, he dug up the ads and reproduced them for all to see.

New Jinx

Bill Madsen published New Jinx many years later, starting in the 1960s.

75th Anniversary Celebration

A special 32 page new issue of Jinx created by Harry Anderson was published in the October 2009 issue of Genii .
