EDITORS COMMENTS
This undated double photograph depicts the counterpoise table used in the séances conducted by the mediumistic brothers Rudi and Willi Schneider, as investigated by the paranormal researcher Harry Price. The table, which is approximately 18 inches in length, is a crucial piece of equipment in the controlled laboratory conditions of Price's investigation into the brothers' alleged telekinetic abilities. In the photograph, the table is adorned with various objects, including a basket, wires, and a light. The counterpoise table was used to test the Schneider brothers' abilities by placing objects on the table and observing if they could move them through supposedly paranormal means. The table's design was intended to minimize the possibility of external influences or trickery, making it a focal point of Price's rigorous investigations. The double photograph, which features two identical images of the table, offers a unique glimpse into Price's historical investigation into the Schneider brothers' mediumistic abilities. The photograph's presence in the Harry Price archive at the National Magic Circle Museum in London serves as an essential record of this intriguing period in the history of paranormal research. The photograph's intrigue lies in its documentation of an era when the boundaries between science and the supernatural were being explored, and the investigation of mediumistic abilities was a subject of great interest to many. The counterpoise table, with its seemingly mundane appearance, stands as a testament to the dedication and curiosity of Harry Price and other investigators who sought to understand the unexplained phenomena of the paranormal world. The double photograph, with its meticulous attention to detail and historical significance, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, inviting us to ponder the mysteries of the paranormal and the human desire to explore the unknown.
