One of the most influential imprints in occult publishing from the 1950s on. The corporation was founded by Felix Morrow, who played a major role in the modern occult revival by reprinting rare and important scholarly works of occultism and mysticism that had long been unavailable.

In addition to being sold to libraries, the books reached a large general public through the Mystic Arts Book Club. The spokespersons of the occult revival of the 1960s and 1970s drew heavily from these texts. In 1966, the company was absorbed by Lyle Stuart, Inc., which continued occult publishing under the Citadel Press imprint.
