Peter: Being a Record of Messages and Information received during sittings with different mediums
Published in 1931 "For Private Circulation", this is the first and only edition of a remarkable record, by Mrs. Dickson, recounting her various communications with her late son, Peter. As she states in her forward, "I have compiled this book simply to have a record of what I hope are messages and information received from Peter during the many hours we have sat with different mediums and I sincerely hope with Peter present too. It is not for one's own comfort that one takes up this work, but to try to find out, unceasingly, if they are 'all right' on the 'other side'." An example of the interaction between sitter and medium: I: Peter was ill 3 days. All this is correct and referred to at previous sittings. His head and throat were very painful. II: Medium describes an old lady not recognised and continues. Beside her a boy. Charming, great vitality, not been ill over any period. Sudden illness. Not long passed over, connected with head and throat. No accident or pain - a great shock very sudden." The touching and poignant book is Near Fine with slight sunning to the spine and parts of the cover near the spine, and slight wear to the spine ends. The inner hinge shows weakness at page 9, though the binding remains secure. No jacket, as issued. There are three touching photographic illustrations tipped in: 1. Peter in Scotland, August, 1927. 2. Peter with Pop and Polly (a parrot). 3. Peter in Devonshire, September, 1927. This is an exceedingly rare title with no copies in OCLC Worldcat and no evidence of the book, other than this copy, anywhere in the plethora of available information on the web.
