Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. The "Practical Cogitator," edited by Charles P. Curtis and Ferris Greenslet, is presented in a hardcover Revised Second Edition printed in 1953. The book features light gray cloth-covered boards with green print on the front cover and spine.

Overall, the covers are in good shape with indented spine ends and light rubbing to edges.Despite some light staining on the top edge of the text block, the binding remains square and tight. It's worth noting that the front flyleaf appears to have been replaced. The interior pages, however, are clean and unmarked."The Practical Cogitator," skillfully edited by Charles P.

Curtis and Ferris Greenslet were known figures in literary circles, their editorial choices likely reflect a keen understanding of literature's transformative power.

Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipp…ed like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 130 pp. A Fine copy, with no flaws at all discernible without close loupe inspection. As high grade as Fate gets. Newsprint page paper has modestly toned, as always, but nor much. Extraordinarily sharp example. Highest Grade, particularly for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. See scans. This issue features articles on Dowsing for Murder, Lost in the Fourth Dimension, The Phantom Wolf, My Invisible Wife, a 1956 alchemist, Sea Serpents, Handel's ghost, a poltergeist, and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. l50n.
