The mystery and lore of apparitions : with some account of ghosts, spectres, phantoms and boggarts in early times
A 1930 London book by C. J. S. Thompson, published by H. Shaylor, surveying ghosts, spectres, phantoms and apparitions from early times for general readers interested in the supernatural. The four pictures are old engravings and woodcuts: ghostly figures among mountains, a pair of women and a man walking in a landscape, a cloaked hooded figure standing on a mound, and Macbeth's witches conjuring in a cave, so a designer could draw on their hooded silhouettes, misty clouds and cave lighting for atmospheric, eerie compositions.
