Museum of Talking Boards, Planchettes (original) (raw)

The Mysterious Planchette labeled British Manufacture, an English import, did double duty as a writing planchette and as a message indicator for the imaginatively named Physio-Psychophone. In reality, the Physio-Psychophone was nothing more than a piece of wax paper with numbers, letters and fortune cookie aphorisms like: "Try to improve the present, then the future will be brighter."
