Dave Elman course in Medical Hypnosis 3 LPs BOXED SET, 6 Course, 1960 MINT COND with 1956 Medical Relaxation
It looks like records never removed from sleeves.

Dave Elman was born May 6, 1900 in Park River, North Dakota and died on December 5, 1967.
His interest in hypnosis was stimulated at an early age by his father who was an accomplished hypnotist.
When Dave was 8 years old he began to realize the vast possibilities of hypnosis in the relief of pain.
This occurred when his father was dying of cancer and a family friend relieved the intractable pain quite
rapidly with hypnosis, This friend was a well-known hypnotist with an enviable fame for performing
outstanding feats. Young Dave never forgot how his Dad was afforded relief not available from
traditional medical procedures. In his early teens, Dave started working in show business during his
school vacations, usually as a comic. One season he did a hypnosis act, but soon gave it up when he
found that parents objected to their daughters dating him. They were actually afraid of the "power"
he'd wield over them. Dave, who was an accomplished musician, specializing in saxophone and violin,
loved show business. He wrote all his own material as well as songs. One season he tried New York
and worked in night clubs for a while. He didn't enjoy this type of work so he gave it up and got a job
working for music publishers. It was at this time that Dave became acquainted with the famous
W. C. Handy, with whom he worked for some years, writing quite a few songs together.
In fact, years after Dave had given up this phase of his work, Handy sent him a contract for royalties
on a couple of songs that they had written, W.C. and other members of the Handy family became
Dave's close friends.

The set contains all original paperwork, 3 Double sided LPs and One 78 RPM double sided record.
