HALL, Trevor H. (1910-1991). The Spiritualists typed manuscript with editorial notes. Circa 1962. Consists of 317 typewritten pages from an early draft of Trevor Hall’s The Spiritualists, in which Hall claims that famed medium Florence Cook was a fraud whose deception was enabled in part by her affair with chemist and physicist Sir William Crookes. Handwritten line edits and paragraphs pasted over with edited typewritten text. A fascinating glimpse into the editing process of one of the most famous books ever published on the topic of spiritualism.
