Laura Mundo & Johnny

I've been up since 6 AM for some unknown reason and seeing as I listened to the Saucer Life podcast concerning Laura Mundo before bed I'll just assume that I was abducted over night. Haha. The following scans and photographs in this post are a few excerpts from Laura's 1929 The Opinions of the Dignified Seniors of C. H. S. booklet and other ephemera related to her. The latter part of the title of the first piece standing for William G. Crosby High School in Belfast, Maine. I'm not exactly sure how she arrived there from her hometown of Boston but a census or two from that time range suggests that her mother re-married and her and her siblings were living with their stepfather Albert Sheain and presumably their biological mother Alberta. The keepsake was purchased, along with other ephemera and photographs, from the estate of a relative of Laura living in Livonia, Michigan bearing the Marxer surname. I assume that it was a granddaughter as one of the proprietors of ...

Laura Mundo Publications

As mentioned in the previous post I have secured a copy of Laura's autobiography entitled Belmont via a relative of hers. Belmont being the name of the town in Maine in which she spent her formative years. I'm only 30 pages into the book and it is quite poignantly written in belabored terms of her early years. Then again, she was writing the manuscript in her late 60s and early 70s so reflection is requisite. After the Foreward and Introduction there is a previous titles page and lists her most recent and/or important works which were still available at the time circa 1981. They are as follows (errors included): 1. Flying Saucer Up-Day ! by Laura Mundo, pioneer flying saucer writer, lecturer, research. Includes her saucer sightings, radio messages from the Visitors. Photos, illustrations. Kept-up-to-date. Laura is a former associate of George Adamski. $2.00. 2. Doomsday..Coming Up ? by Laura Mundo. Concerned with the accelerating sunspots, the reason the space people are there...

Laura Mundo's Aversion to Psychics in Flying Saucer Research: A Probable Explanation

Laura Mundo and her inner circle's resistance to psychics in regards to flying saucer research was well-documented and public. One probable explanation has to do with a former member of the Study Group on Interplanetary Relations named Rose Phillips. Phillips, a Detroit-area based medium, served as the treasurer for the group according to FBI investigation internal documents. During this same time period at the end of 1954 and into 1955, Phillips was, according to the book Alien Worlds , also actively advising the Doomsday cult The Seekers (sometimes called The Brotherhood of the Seven Rays) which was formed by Michigan State College staffer Charles Laughead and lead by Dorothy Martin (known as Sister Thedra) of Chicago. The Los Angeles Times, December 17, 1954 Their numerous predictions that flying saucers were coming to pick up The Seekers in the end times earned the group notoriety in the press with a cavalcade of newspaper articles decrying them and causing Ma...
