Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Ghost
"Tom Lynn took this photograph of his friend Patterson.
The photograph shows a script from, and the signature of, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, an Honorary President in Spirit of the Spiritualists' National Union.
Lady Conan Doyle authenticated this signature as being that of her husband. Another historical photograph.." - Vi Kipling
Spirit Photo Reply:
I have already commented about the possibility of the photographer writing onto the photographic glass plate with a stylus in advance of the sitting and the taking of the photograph.
If this were the case here then faking a signature would be much harder to have done and this of course gives weight to the claim that this is a genuine paranormal picture.
In 1916 Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of the Sherlock Holmes stories made a declaration that would impact the rest of his life. He stated his belief in Spiritualism and spent a good part of his later life investigating paranormal phenomena. There have been many instances of Conan Doyle giving messages through mediums or at séance.
Lady Conan Doyle was herself a medium and on one occasion she gave a message to Houdini. Unfortunately Houdini was not convinced as the spirit message was in English which was a language his Yiddish speaking mother had never mastered. Houdini and Doyle spent many years debating and sometimes debunking the reality - or otherwise - of spirit communication.
Many thanks to the Spiritualist Vi Kipling for discovering and obtaining permission to use these spirits images.

You know, I tend to say that whilst reading most issues of FT. I often take it into the office and read out the funnier parts of Strange Days and the more "Unusual" letters...
...only to have folk look at me as if I am strange...
The USS Watertown photo article is:The SS Watertown photograph investigation is a great piece of detective work, exactly why the FT is the fine journal it is today. Get that man to Newby Church!
That was actually me.This has just plopped through the letterbox
I wondered why it had slime on it...That was actually me.
