Nine typographic eidetikers and nine matched non-imagers, identified in 1980/81, were retested at the end of 1984. Evidence of some typographic eidetic ability was found in six of the original eidetikers and in three of the non-imagers. The hypothesis that those with some typographic eidetic ability would show more evidence of synaesthesia than those with none was not supported. No relationship was found between typographic eidetic ability as measured by the stimulus picture method and structural eidetic ability as measured by the Open Circle test. However, three characteristics of the fantasy-prone personality were reported more frequently among those with some typographic eidetic ability than among those with none. These were, the experience of anomalous events, the enjoyment of sensory qualities and the tendency to become deeply absorbed in action and thought. The results were interpreted in terms of the vestigial hypothesis and related to the theories of Heinz Werner and Herman Witkin.
