Comments (from Genii's Magicpedia): "Mental-Wise was the house organ for Ed Mellon's mentalism business out of Uniontown, Pennsylvania that ran from 1953 until November, 1961 (Vol 5, No. 5)". I've seen compiled editions of Volume One to Four, and Bill Miesel published the Best of Mental-Wise book in 1978. Much of the contents were advertisements for products sold by Ed.
