The widow's mite and other psychic phenomena
A 1911 New York and London work by Isaac K. Funk, published by Funk & Wagnalls, treating spiritualism and parapsychology for a general reading public. The four pictures are crude rough-edged line drawings: two loose ring shapes flanking a vertical stroke, a hooked silhouette figure, a stemmed goblet outline, and a bowl-like arc with a single upright bar. A designer could take their rough, hand-cut ink marks as a raw, primitive graphic vocabulary for symbols or occult diagrams.
