A propos de cet article

Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1955. The July, 1955 issue of Fate Magazine (Volume 8, Number 7) in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. This July, 1955 issue carries on the titillating-cover tradition, features a now somewhat titillating cover, depicting scene from the ancient Oracle of Delphi mystery, with a very fetching lass being the conduit for the prognostications (which may, in fact, be a reasonably accurate representation, in this case). 12mo, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 130 pp. Very Good; fairly notable damage at spine top (scan) and a closed tear at mid right edge, front covers (scan). Otherwise - quite sharp, with just standard age-toning to the still very supple pages. In addition to that cover article, this issue features articles on a Ghost Train, Reincarnation, Psychokinesis, Psycho-Biology,the Clear Lake Ghost, Voices of the Kwei, a Mischievous Skeleton, and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. Please see scans. L86.
