Comments: From the 1976 Max Abrams edition introduction, "In about mid-1932 more than a dozen of Ted Annemann's effects were typed up by Frank Lane and sold privately. When the carbon copies were distributed, more copies were typed. As a result these effects exist in a few rare copies, each of which describe the effects somewhat differently and with mistakes. This manuscript is a composite of three versions of the "original" manuscript plust eh condensed versions of some of the effects as puplished in Pallbearers Review." Also available as an eBook from Lybrary.com.
