[Illustration: FIG. 28.—Photograph of Mrs. E. Pickup with psychic
likeness of her husband. The sitter was an absolute stranger to the Crewe
Circle. (_See_ p. 106.)]
[Illustration: FIG. 29.—Photograph of Mrs. Pickup’s husband for
comparison with his psychic likeness on Fig. 28.]
[Illustration: FIG. 30.—Mrs. Burgess with psychic likeness of her uncle,
Mr. H. D. Barlow. Obtained through the mediumship of Mrs. Deane in the
home of Mr. Fred Barlow, who developed the plate alone in his dark room.
An excellent likeness. A normal photograph of Mr. Barlow is shown in the
inset. (_See_ p. 63.)]
[Illustration: FIG. 31.—Since this book was written, the above important
photograph shows that Mr. F. Barlow, in the presence of three witnesses
(Messrs. Browne, Newton and Gilby), under good test conditions, obtained
through the Crewe Circle a picture of his father. Note how the psychic
face has moved and compare with the Deane result (Fig. 30.) and normal
photograph. (_See_ inset in Fig. 30.)]
What reply can be given to such definite statements as these here
enumerated by reputable witnesses in every grade of life? Every reader
with an open mind will agree that the evidence for the reality of psychic
photography is overwhelming. It is only necessary to repeat that these
reports form but part of a tremendous mass of accumulated evidence, which
is available for any serious student to investigate. Unfortunately, in
a popular volume of this description it is possible only to reproduce
just a few of the photographic results referred to. As far as possible,
however, these photographic effects are being accumulated and preserved
so as to form a permanent record of the truth of psychic photography.
