Harriet Beecher Stowe, Phrenological journal and life illustrated., Brandeis Library · 1886 · New York : Fowler & Wells Co., 1886. · 3 pictures

An 1886 New York pamphlet from Fowler & Wells, published as a reprint from the Phrenological Journal and Life Illustrated, gathering Harriet Beecher Stowe's essays on witchcraft, planchette and spiritualism for a general reading public. The three pictures are plain black-and-white line drawings: a heart-shaped tabletop on splayed legs, a heraldic shield with three flames, and a pair of phrenology-style figures labelled Combativeness and Friendship, showing how the period rendered character and gesture with simple outline.
