    Verso:

    u.l. printed: The scene constantly changes. While one \ looks the colors turn from one shade to another \ and then change color. It is hardly imaginable \ that the opposite Canyon wall is 13 miles away. \ The mind is unused to grasping such tremendous \ things. At first it is not impressed by this, yet \ slowly but surely incredulity is changed to possi- \ bility, and doubt is changed to belief.

    c.l. printed along left edge: "PHOSTINT" CARD. MADE ONLY BY DETROIT PUBLISHING CO. \ TRADE MARK - REG U.S. PAT. OFF.
