Description
Series of 12 professional images of rooms inside the Winchester Mystery House. The "seance room" with multiple cupboards (2 images) was captioned, "In the upper cabinet in the small room is the last remaining piece of original wallpaper that Sarah Winchester installed in this room. It covered every wall showing mysterious floating spheres. The spheres were white with a background of grayish blue. The suspended quality that the spheres created cause me to believe this was very much the seance room. The wallpaper was still intact in the 1950s but later attempts to spiff up a tourist attraction had it painted over."
