“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

December. A connection with a willingness to go somewhere. Star shapes. The color white background, and a paper item, folded like a card, the center being a rectangular shape.

(My drawing was actually a recreation of artwork that had been lost at Artistic Card Co. As often happens the original art was later found after I had duplicated it. The drawing was for a gummed sticker to be applied to a line of packaged cards of various kinds—religious, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, etc., and was for a large old department store in Philadelphia, PA, that goes under the cavalier name of John’s Bargain Store. As the copy of my tracing shows these stickers are applied to the appropriate merchandise at various times of the year.

(“I get a connection with a missionary, or religion”, is a reference to the fact that the stickers were to be used on boxes of religious cards, as well as other categories. While I was making the drawing the four or five boxes of different cards were laid out before me so that I could refer to them, and the religious box was among them.

(“and a paper item, folded like a card”, also referred, Jane said, to my drawing rather than the envelope object. Jane said she had a vague image of a small round object upon a rectangular folded object that was like a card, yet the circle was not placed as neatly in the center of the rectangle as my drawing is. It was more offset toward the upper right corner, hence her postmark reference on page 321 also. On page 314 note that my tracing-paper drawing is folded roughly like a card.

(“A connection with a house and a white border.” This is interesting, in that Jane said she had an image of a card shape with a house and foliage on it. It was not very clear, yet she knew that much about it. The boxes of cards for which the sticker was made are large, large enough to contain reproductions of four cards, arranged in a rectangular pattern on the box top, and on a printed gold background. Each card design is surrounded by a rectangular white border, perhaps an eighth of an inch wide. Some of the boxes laid out before me, as I made my drawing for the sticker, contained reproductions of cards bearing houses, trees, flowers, etc.; the standard kind of subject material for greeting cards.
