The Jinx was a magic periodical edited and published by Theodore Annemann from October 1934 – December 1941.[1] It was originally a monthly magazine but began weekly publication with no. 61 in October 1939.[2] It has been described in M-U-M as "one of the greatest magazines ever published"[3] and in The Linking Ring as "probably the greatest magic magazine of all time".[1] Many publications have since followed the format of The Jinx.[4] The complete magazine has been republished by Lou Tannen as a three volume facsimile.[5]
