Book of heavenly teachings
A spiritualist book printed in Dallas, Texas, in 1912 by Johnston printing and advertising company under the name of R. P. Baugh, probably for readers interested in communication with the dead. Its pictures are rotated sepia engravings of seated and standing figures in long dresses and dark suits, some gathered in rows before columns and windows, with printed captions in blocks beside them; a designer might take their formal Victorian poses, dense text-and-image layouts, and aged tonal palette.
