[1] A curious additional pseudonym of Pearce, A. J., very similar to Zadkiel, yet there would appear to have been an initial intention to hide the editor’s identity as the editor of Zadkiel’s Almanac, resulting in the choice of a different pseudonym, only for this policy to be abandoned after three months of publication of this new magazine

[2] Pseud. of Pearce, A. J.

[3] At least, none specified on the issues themselves, although it is unclear in the absence of the original separate issue covers whether or not Glen & Co. continued to be specified as the publisher on them

About this Book Scan

Carefully reproduced in full colour from our original printing of the whole-year volume of the astrological magazine Star Lore and Future Events spanning January 1897 to December 1897, which was the first year of publication of this publication edited by Alfred Pearce.

Pearce bridged the English astrological movements of the 19th and early 20th centuries, serving as editor of Zadkiel’s Almanac for many years after the death of Commander Richard Morrison, and authoring several important books in the late 19th century. He also edited a succession of astrological magazines, of which this was his third and final effort after Urania and The Future (see our scans also of those titles).
