Staples with rust yapped edges worn and stained few with light damp staining mainly to fore and bottom edges and with corresponding rippling. A very good set. The first 9 issues of 12 from the "9th" volume of this quite uncommon spiritualist periodical from lifelong occultist and medium Dr. Will J. Erwood 1874-1948. The Radiant Life sought to develop "mind power" through instruction given by Erwood's channeling of "an intelligence" and "the Teacher" which he mediated at regular Psychic Classes. Erwood was a minister of the National Spiritualist Association active in the General Association of Spiritualists of New York and published other magazines such as The Mystic Key and Super-Psychology. He sold his "Radio Centric Power" lessons such as these along with those on Clairvoyance "Clairoaudience" "Clairsentience" and other undeveloped powers. A very scarce periodical which seemingly ran for only 3 volumes 8 9 and 10 from 1925-1927. OCLC cites 2 holdings for any issues at the University of Illinois and the Wisconsin Historical Society Library. . Will J. Erwood unknown
