Scientific suggestion, the secret of success : hypnotism, its uses and abuses
This 1909 trade volume, published for agents and the book trade (probably Chicago), is a popular self-help treatise by L. H. Anderson on mental suggestion and hypnotism as a route to success. Its pictures are a black ornamental floral corner piece, a flowing-haired woman beside a 'List of Self-Culture Publications' banner, and a formal studio portrait of a man in a bow tie and buttonhole flower, showing how early twentieth-century American trade publishers framed self-improvement with decorative headers and author portraits.
