This intriguing 1965 second printing of “Handwriting a Key to Personality” by K. G. Roman offers a fascinating glimpse into the pseudoscientific practice of graphology, the study of handwriting as a means of assessing personality traits and psychological dispositions. Although its claims have been largely discredited by modern psychology, graphology enjoyed widespread popularity in the early 20th century, capturing the imagination of both professionals and the general public. Roman’s work, with its well-preserved pages and secure binding, stands as a time capsule of this era’s fascination with the occult and the quest to unlock the secrets of the human psyche through unconventional means. For collectors and enthusiasts of vintage psychology texts, this copy represents a unique opportunity to explore the history of graphology and its role in shaping popular perceptions of personality analysis before the advent of more rigorous scientific methods.
