EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of paranormal investigation: the testing of the Czech vaudeville telepath, Fred Marion, also known as Josef Kraus, in 1933. In this image, Dr. S.E. Soal, a renowned psychical researcher, and Ethel Beenham, a medium, concentrate intently as they observe Marion's attempt to "sense" the value and color of a playing card. The card's back is the only part exposed to his view, making this a test of his claimed ability in concentration telepathy. Marion, a popular performer in European vaudeville circuits, had gained notoriety for his supposed psychic abilities, which included telepathy, clairvoyance, and precognition. His acts often involved guessing hidden objects or numbers, which drew large crowds and skepticism from both audiences and investigators. This photograph is part of the Harry Price Library and Archives, which documents various paranormal investigations conducted by Harry Price, a British psychical researcher. The library contains extensive records of séances, experiments, and investigations into psychic phenomena during the early 20th century. The test of Marion's telepathic abilities was one of many experiments conducted by Dr. Soal and other researchers to assess the validity of his claims. The results of these tests, along with the documentation of Marion's performances, provide valuable insights into the cultural fascination with the paranormal during this period and the scientific methods used to investigate such phenomena. This photograph, with its intriguing subject matter and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the world of paranormal investigation in the 1930s and the ongoing quest to understand the mysteries of the human mind.
