“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The envelope object for tonight’s 35th experiment was a beer coaster that I picked up from our table last Saturday evening, at our favorite dining and dancing establishment here in Elmira. It was the one I had used. Jane and I met two young couples there by prearrangement, and we had much fun dancing. The coaster is made of heavy absorbent cardboard, so I peeled the top layer of paper from it. This contained the design, printed in red, without any unusual thickness to furnish Jane unwitting clues. It was sealed in the usual double envelope between two pieces of Bristol.

(At 10:20 I handed Jane the 35th double envelope and she took it without opening her eyes. She held it against her forehead with her right hand.)

(“A paper item.” The envelope object is a paper item. As stated, it originally was quite thick, so I peeled the top layer from it, containing the design printed in red, to insert into the double envelopes. This reduced it to the thickness of rather heavy writing paper. When this thin layer was enclosed between the regular two pieces of Bristol, then sealed in the usual double envelope, it was not possible to judge by feel, or weight, that it was in any way somewhat different from the usual envelope object.

(Now see my notes on page 305, concerning my consciously forgetting the contentsof the double envelope used in this evening’s experiment. I was sure that subconsciously however I knew the contents well.
