Doctor Ferrari Sees the Earth’s Edge

This artifact is a comic created by Leo Ferrari about the Flat Earth Society of Canada. The comic is not currently on display at the museum but is located instead within the museum archives. The object's date is believed to be 1971. The comic recounts the story of Ferrari visiting Fogo Island to see the edge of the Earth for himself. A quote from the comic, “...you have to know that the edge is there, or you will not see it” is particularly interesting. What things in life might one be able to perceive if one believed in them without having first seen them? Something to think about...
