American Society For the Occult Sciences

Here's an odd record I found at a thrift store this past summer. It's from 1973 and is called American Society For the Occult Sciences. It's a spoken word record and each side is one long track --

Side A - How to Develop Your ESP
Side B - The Facts About Witchcraft

A Google search didn't turn up much info about this record. But, during the recording the narrator mentions a couple of books he wrote. The Handbook of Parapsychology and The New Pagans. After another Google search, I found out that these two books were written by Hans Holzer in 1972. My guess is that he's the narrator of this album. The record came in a plain white album jacket.

Cool find. You can preview some of the man's books at GOOGLE BOOKS. Unfortunately, the two you mentioned aren't among them.

thanks for offering the whole LP.
some people sell this album for big bucks in the "psychedelic' hipster scene.
