Tucked into a donated book, found by Karen, was this Personality Chart based on Analysis of Handwriting conducted by Abraham R. Kaminsky.

Also known as Graphology, this is the analysis of the physical characteristics and patterns of handwriting claiming to be able to identify the writer, indicating the psychological state at the time of writing, or evaluating personality characteristics. It is generally considered a pseudoscience, though Mr. Kaminsky considers himself a consultant of "individual problems, industrial relations and questioned documents".
I tried to find the Bev Lehman whose results I have. Looking at her high/very high characteristics (sense of freedom from rejections, creative imagination, enthusiasm, capacity for sympathy, etc) she sounds like my kind of gal.
I had a difficult time learning much about this graphologist. However, I found this review of his book rather informative, "Very very interesting book! A. R. Kaminsky was not only a graphologist but also a physiognomist, an artist and had many more talents which he gained through a lot of self education in various fields. Combining his talents he figured out a way to draw faces from handwriting. This book is no "How-To-Guide" but still provides some very interesting insights into his methods and entertaining anecdotes, indicating that there is much more potential in graphology than one might think. I wished there were more books available from this gifted man! If anyone knows where I can get something else from Kaminsky, please let me know!"
Another interesting tidbit I learn about Mr. Kaminsky was that he wrote songs (under the pseudonym of A.R. Kamm). Several were included on Ms. Lehman's analysis, and also registered in various copyright books. I also found out that in 1968 he trademarked the saying HOW 'BOUT THAT! Weird, right?
And where did Abraham work his handwriting analysis magic? This particular chart states it was done at Del Webb's Mountain Shadows Resort Scottsdale, Arizona. Period players like Liz Taylor, John Wayne and the Rat Pack teed off on its verdant fairways, luxuriated by its glistening lagoon-style pool, and soaked up swank desert aura when the 68-acre property first opened in 1959. Sammy Davis Jr., Lainie Kazan, Bob Hope, Burt Reynolds, and other cool kids, rocked the lounge into the wee hours until the party ended in 2004. It just couldn't keep up with all the new kids on the block. It has since been demolished and rebuilt but I like envisioning Mr. Kaminsky, hobnobbing with the likes of Frank Sinatra telling them, based on the autograph he was certain to request, how their ratings for criteria like finger dexterity, emotional expressiveness and sense of details rank on his Personality Chart. Fun find!

I 🧡 forgotten bookmarks. Once found, one never knows what one will learn from them. I will never look at a donated book without searching for its hidden treasures.
