Who's what : an instant and authoritative character analysis chart
Visual Materials
Item is a color lithographed cardboard wheel chart illustrated with four female and four male profiles. The chart contains three discs with profiles and cut-outs that rotate to form phrenological combinations of various facial features and personality descriptions. When the numbers on the three rings align, they form three-digit combinations that describe specific character traits. The text on the chart states that "512 combinations of faces with 512 different character readings may be made." The center of the chart includes a hole with a metal ring that likely formerly contained a metal fastener attached to rotate the dials. Around the ring, the text reads, "Patented May 21, 1922, Frank C. Newell Jr." The bottom right of the chart reads, "Newell Research Institute. 17 West 42[n]d Street, New York City." The verso of the chart describes the science of character reading in detail and lists the three main types of temperaments: mental, vital, and motive, and the seven groups of faculties: domestic, animal, aspiring, moral, self-perfecting, reflective, and perceptive. Illustrations on verso also include phrenological diagrams of human front, back, and side profiles.
