Hellstromism (REVISED EDITION)
by Robert A. Nelson

The first and only true explanation of the miraculous feats of the late Axel Hellstrom, mindreader supreme . . the man who baffled many of the world's most scientific and magical minds. A topic of conversation wherever presented.

Magicians, students of the occult, psychic entertainers, scientists and profound thinkers alike have long sought . . .

THE TRUE SECRET OF GENUINE MIND READING

No gimmics. No stooges. No electronics. No mirrors. Nothing prearranged.

Any time, any place, with any group of honest, sincere spectators, the psychic entertainer allows the spectators to merely THINK of certain actions – mental commands – which he promptly performs. A few of the possible tests:

• To find hidden objects

• To deliver sealed messages to an unknown addressee

• To obey mental commands such as 'take Mr. A's handkerchief and place it on Megan's head'

• To uncrew an electric bulb and place it in the refrigerator

• To turn out the lights

• To remove John's shoe, untie and remove the laces, then tie them around another spectator's wrist

• To locate the performer's check that is hidden somewhere in the audience

• Etc., etc.

Thousands of similar tests are possible. And let us remind you that the actions to be performed are known only to the subject. They are not written down or confided to anyone in advance.

This superb dual effect does not employ any stooges or confederates. It is strictly a one man presentation, and suitable for presentation under practically all circumstances. The performer is under complete control of the situation at all times.

Can be performed under true test conditions.
