EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures a moment in history that is both intriguing and unsettling. In the 1930s, Ethel Beenham, who was Harry Price's secretary, is seen demonstrating how a sheet of cheesecloth measuring 2 metres by half a metre can be fitted into a deceiving medium's mouth or other orifice. This demonstration sheds light on the fraudulent practices that were sometimes employed in the world of paranormal mediumship during this time.
The image itself is hauntingly captivating, with Ethel's expression conveying a sense of seriousness and determination as she carries out the demonstration. The sheer size of the cheesecloth sheet adds to the eerie atmosphere of the scene, hinting at the lengths to which some individuals would go to deceive others for personal gain.
Through this photo print, we are given a glimpse into a dark chapter of history where manipulation and trickery were used to exploit people's beliefs in the supernatural. It serves as a reminder to approach claims of paranormal activity with skepticism and critical thinking.
Overall, this image is not only visually striking but also thought-provoking, prompting viewers to consider the complexities of human nature and our propensity for deception.
