Green cloth boards are scuffed at edges & worn/bumped at corners. Head and tail of spine collapsed. Gilt lettering and ruling on spine dulled & soiled, but still legible. Light toning throughout text-block, some instances of ink stains, finger-soiling, and age-stains - but none impede text. Three fold-outs are intact, but fragile.

Please see photos and ask questions, if any, before purchasing. The Society for Psychical Research (SPR) originated from a discussion between journalist Edmund Rogers and the physicist William F. Barrett in autumn 1881. This led to a conference in January 1882 at the headquarters of the British National Association of Spiritualists, at which the foundation of the Society was proposed. Areas of study included hypnotism, dissociation, thought-transference, mediumship, Reichenbach phenomena, apparitions and haunted houses and the physical phenomena associated with séances. Very interesting content. Fold-outs intact. COLH1885BFJB11/23 - HK882
