Description: Pearsons US June 1922 Upton Sinclair, Hugo Gellert, Algernon Blackwood, Frank Harris, Harry SalpeterUpton Sinclair- Time magazine called him "a man with every gift except humor and silence".editor in chief- Frank Harris (yes THE Frank Harris)Cover Artist- Hugo Gellert Cover Story- it’s a whopperThe House of Wonder- Upton SinclairUpton Sinclair’s article "The House of Wonders" for Pearson's Magazine in June of 1922 which promoted Dr. Abrams' theory and methods led to numerous articles on the E.R.A. in popular magazines both pro and con. Turns out Albert Abrams was perhaps the greatest quack of the twentieth century and he fooled Sinclair completely. Dr Abram’s claimed that all that was needed from a patient for diagnosis was a drop of blood, a single hair, or even a handwriting sample as these would give off the unique "vibrations" of that individual.

LittleThe magazine folded in April 1925 after a total run of 314 issues.About Hugo GellertHugo Gellert (born Hugó GrÜnbaum, May 3, 1892 – December 9, 1985) was a Hungarian-American illustrator and muralist. A committed radical and member of the Communist Party of America, Gellert created much work for political activism in the 1920s and 1930s. It was distinctive in style, considered by some art critics as among the best political work of the first half of the 20th century. Hugo Gellert is represented in the collections of the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, Arkansas; the British Museum, London; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania; the Portland Art Museum, Oregon; the Huntington, San Marino, California; the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; and the Worcester Art Museum, Massachusetts. Retrospective exhibitions of his work were held at the Marx-Lenin Institute in Moscow in 1967 and at the National Gallery in Budapest in 1968.Many of the later issues are lost issuesWhile this magazine is an extremely poor and fragile condition, it is practically one of a kind and as such is being sold as the priceless historic artifact that it is The items I sell are vintage.
