EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures an intriguing moment in the history of spiritualism and paranormal investigations in the early 20th century. The envelope in the image bears the inscription, "Received from Miss Maule, The sum of Four Pounds, 5th January 1933, for tonights sance. Helen Duncan." This artifact is part of a series of photographs documenting Harry Price's investigations into the mediumship of Helen Duncan and Esson Maule. Harry Price, a renowned psychical researcher, was a leading figure in the investigation of spiritual phenomena during this period. Helen Duncan, a Scottish medium, claimed to communicate with the dead during her seances. Price was initially intrigued by her abilities but later became skeptical and sought to expose her methods. Esson Maule, a journalist, was also involved in the investigation and played a significant role in the exposure of Helen Duncan during a seance in Edinburgh in 1934. The envelope, dated January 1933, shows the financial transaction between Miss Maule and Helen Duncan for a seance. The image offers a glimpse into the world of spiritualism and the business side of mediumship during this time. It also serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between belief and skepticism, and the role of investigations in shaping our understanding of the paranormal. This photograph, with its historical significance and intriguing backstory, is a valuable addition to any collection of paranormal history or spiritualism research. It offers a unique perspective on the past and sheds light on the fascinating world of psychical research and the investigation of the unknown.
