EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Haven for the Unexplained: The Society for Psychical Research's Rare Book Collection at their Former Kensington Offices (1987) 2.. This evocative photograph captures the essence of the Society for Psychical Research's (SPR) former offices at Adam & Eve Mews in Kensington, London, showcasing the intriguing collection of rare books that filled the library. Established in 1882, the Society for Psychical Research is one of the oldest paranormal research organizations in the world. Its mission is to investigate phenomena that defy scientific explanation, including psychic phenomena, mediumship, and spiritualism. In this image, we see the dimly lit library, filled with shelves upon shelves of ancient tomes, their pages yellowed with age. The atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation and discovery, as scholars and researchers delve into the depths of the unknown. The books, bound in leather and adorned with intricate designs, bear witness to the rich history of paranormal investigation and the enduring fascination with the unexplained. The Society for Psychical Research's library has long been a treasure trove for those seeking knowledge in the realm of the paranormal. With a collection spanning centuries and continents, it is a testament to the organization's commitment to uncovering the mysteries of the universe. In this photograph, we are given a glimpse into the past, a moment frozen in time that speaks to the enduring allure of the unknown. The Society for Psychical Research's offices, located at Adam & Eve Mews in Kensington, London, were their home from 1920 until 1992. This photograph, taken in 1987, captures the rare book collection that filled the library during that time. The Society continues its research and investigations to this day, and its archives remain an invaluable resource for scholars and researchers in the field of parapsychology and the paranormal.
