The purity and destiny of modern spiritualism : light for the seeker, hope for the weary hearted
An 1899 Boston spiritualism treatise by T. B. Hall, published by Cupples and Schoenhof and held in the Library of Congress Houdini collection, aimed at seekers and the grieving. Its pictures are steel-engraved portraits of two bearded men in dark coats set against plain cream pages, with a gold floral border on a blank page, offering a designer a restrained Victorian portrait style and a gilt-edged ornamental frame.
