Crandall, Lee. The Venusians. New Age Publishing Company. Los Angeles. 1955. First Edition.
“[W]e would like the reader to ask himself or herself if her can bring himself to believe that this refined sensitive young man could possibly be guilty [of] malingering or foisting a hoax upon the whole world…”
Rare first edition book by chiropractor and early UFO contactee Lee Crandall who claimed to meet Venusians Brother Taho and Brother Bocco and travel with them to Venus, where he is charged with working on their behalf as part of their interplanetary mission of peace. The text includes claims of lost time, descriptions of Venusian blood, circulatory and skeletal systems, drawings of their ship, a Venusian temple, and photographs of the Brothers including hand and footprints.
This copy comes from the library of Solar Light Retreat, a center established in 1968 by “tele-thought contactee” Dr. Marianne Francis, later known as Aleuti Francesca, who claimed to be in communication with entities from “Saturn Command” starting in 1958.
