“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane began speaking in trance while sitting down. Her eyes opened often; her voice was on the quiet side, with brief pauses as a rule.

(See page 230. The object is a card, blank on the reverse side, written to Jane by Caroline Keck, conservator of the Brooklyn Museum; it was mailed to Jane in early August, along with a copy of the book, Is Your Contemporary Painting More Temporary Than You Think? and a mimeographed list of various addresses furnishing technical help and supplies regarding the conservation of paintings. The list was also compiled by Caroline Keck; the book by Louis Pomerantz.

(1st Question: What’s that connection about a book? “It seems as to be an old book. A bound one, with a dark color such as brown on the cover. The side of pages when the book is closed seem dusky in color, like old gold color. The book having a connection with a desk, and another location.” Again, distortion. Jane said that here she confused old paintings and old gilded frames, such as the Kecks worked with at the Arnot, with old books. Quite possibly the book is Louis Pomerantz’s modern one, as described. The cover of this book is a rusty red. Also it may have laid on a desk, and it was sent to Jane from another location—Brooklyn, NY.
