Magic and Murder at the Candy Factory:
The Story of Anna Sula - 2 reels and booklet
Limited Edition (300) by Christopher Schneberger
View-Master set comes with 2 reels (14 images) and 8 page booklet detailing the story. The reels are new, custom made by Fisher-Price for the artist. Each reel is signed and hand numbered. This set was made in conjunction with an exhibition by the same name, and features the images of Anna Sula made by Franklin Baines, the factory boss at the National Candy Company where she worked. Read below for a description of the exhibition: In the midst of the Depression, a teenage orphan was murdered at the Chicago factory where she worked. A clerk at the factory was charged with the crime after evidence was discovered showing he had an obsession with the girl.
Recently, other evidence has surfaced that calls that finding into question. Was there a cult meeting in the building after hours? Did the orphan, young Anna Sula, have supernatural abilities?
In an exhibition at Printworks Gallery, housed in the same building where the murder took place, Christopher Schneberger created an installation detailing the story, and presenting never seen before evidence including photographs revealing Anna's incredible powers, and perhaps her true identity.
This set is the latest work by Christopher Schneberger, an artist living in Chicago. His other 2 works (see below) have brought him rave reviews and 1st place 2 years running at NSA conventions for best program.
