Older UFO Pictures

1910 France: A rare photograph of entry number 5 in the Catalan Cup Race at a track in France. This picture also included a strange unidentified flying object seen over the treetops beyond the line of spectators watching this race. There is no indication whether the photographer saw this object and intended to get it in the picture.

1932 St. Paris, Ohio, USA: The unidentified flying object in this picture could not have been a streetlamp, simply because there were no streetlamps there at that time. There are no power poles or power lines visible anywhere in this picture.

Summer 1932, Mid-day, St. Paris, Ohio. This picture of George Sutton of St. Paris, Ohio, taken near mid-day (as may be seen from the shadows on the ground) shows a vintage automobile with a 1932 license plate on the front bumper. Nobody has been able to account for the dark object seen over Sutton’s left shoulder in this photograph.

1942 Sea of Japan: An Imperial Japanese Sally bomber aircraft, on a mission over the Sea of Japan, was approached by a small dark spherical object which flew around and between the aircraft in the formation. An alert gun-cameraman snapped one photograph.

Us Airmen in the 1940’s have seen these objects too, and nicknamed them,
“Foo Fighters”.

1950 Red Bud, Illinois, USA: 4:00pm on April 23, Mr. Dean Morgan, a part-time photographer, was coming down the south side of a wooded hill from Red Bud, when he saw this object and got one photograph of it.

1952 Salem, MA, USA: A U.S. Coast Guard photographer, Shell R. Alpert, at the Salem, MA, Air Station shot this picture roughly at 9:35am on July 16th. He was in the photo lab working on a camera when he noticed several brilliant lights coming towards him. He watched for a few seconds, then called for another Coast Guardsman, Thomas E. Flaherty, in the nearby sick bay to come and confirm what he was seeing. The lights seemed to dim, then all at once got much brighter, so he grabbed his camera, and shot this picture through a window screen. The picture was taken with a 4×5″ box camera set at infinity, 1/30th of a second, at f/4.7.

1952 Puerto Maldonado, Peru: 4:30pm on July 19, Customs Inspector Sr. Domingo Troncoso, then with the Peruvian Customs Office at Puerto Maldonado on the jungle frontier with Bolivia, was called to a very strange cigar-shaped flying object over the river area. The big dirigible-shaped craft was flying horizontally and fairly low in the sky, passing from right to left from the observer’s position. It was leaving a dense trail of thick smoke, vapor, or substance on its wake. This object was a real, structured, physical machine and may be seen from its reflection in the waters of the Madre de Dios River underneath it. The object was estimated to be over a hundred feet long.

1952, July 26th, Washington DC, USA:  This particular photo was debunked as, “Birds flying over our capitol reflecting city light from their bellies”.  Some say this photo could also show lens flairs; but two consecutive weekends in July 1952, mysterious objects repeatedly breached restricted airspace and triggered radar screens at Washington National Airport and Andrews Air Force Base

1952 Passiac, New Jersy, USA: Mr. George J. Stock, in the yard working on his lawnmower, around 4:30pm, took this picture with his box reflex camera. It was coming directly over his house from the IT&T tower and was estimated to be 20 to 25ft above the ground. This sighting lasted only a couple of minutes.

1958 Trindade, Brazil: Off the Brazilian coast near Trindade many of the ship’s crew as well as a Mr. Barania, photographer for the Brazilian Navy witnessed this saucer shaped object that shadowed the movements of the ship. No warfare exercises were practiced. Instead, the Brazilian vessel was participating in the International Geophysical Year of 1958. Computer enhancement reveals that the craft is composed of a globe circled by a large, metallic ring much like the planet Saturn.

1963 McMinnville, Oregon, USA:  At 7:30pm, Mrs. Paul Trent was outside feeding her rabbits near a garage when she noticed an unusual flying object flying towards her from the Northwest.  Yelling for her husband to bring his camera, Mrs. Trent stood nearby as her husband shot two pictures of the incoming object.  Because of the object’s speed and quick acceleration, he was only able to take the two pictures. The object seemed to travel west towards a neighbor’s farmhouse, then quickly vanished from their site.

1963 Peralta, New Mexico, USA:  Paul Villa was in an area south of Albuquerque near the town of Peralta when he found a landed silver circular craft about 70ft in diameter.  Nine human-like beings came out of the ship through a sealed door.  They spoke to Villa in English and Spanish and could communicate telepathically.  The visitors told Villa they had several discs that could pick up pictures and sounds from any place and relay their data back to the ship instantly.  After a long conversation the ship took off, taking care not to harm the small creatures on the ground below, per Villa’s request.

1965 Santa Ana, California, USA: While racing home to Santa Ana, Mr. Rex Heflin took several photographs of this hat-shaped saucer. Because of the presence of the telephone poles in the background, it has been estimated that this craft is more than 30ft in diameter.  Mr. Heflin has donated these photographs to independent UFO researchers for no monetary compensation. Seven years and 7000 miles away, in Cluj, Romania, Mr. Amiel Barnea photographed a similar (or possibly the same) hat-shaped UFO. Six years after that occurrence, Belotie, Yugoslavia was the sight of another similar witnessing. Ann Druffel, UFO researcher and author, is believed to be the owner and in possession of the original photographs.

1965 Bernalillo, New Mexico, USA:  On Easter Sunday Apolinar Villa was guided telepathically to this spot where he spotted this craft hovering silently in the air and photographed it.

1965 Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA:  At 1:45am on August 2, 1965, young Alan Smith, then 14 years old, snapped two color photographs of a blinking, colored, luminous, discoid flying object that passed directly over his house there in Tulsa.  It had alternating blue, orange, and white lights shining from its underside.

1966 Lake Tiorati, New York:  The west side of the Hudson River, three fishermen noticed an unusual circular metallic flying object.  One of the men grabbed a box camera and managed to snap four pictures before it flew away over Stockbridge Mountain.

1967 Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA:  January 12, a fisherman sitting in his boat on the west side of Old River saw this object and only had time to take one picture before it shot off at a 45 degree angle at a great rate of speed.  No sound was heard during the experience.

1967 Picacho Peak, New Mexico, USA:  At about 2:00pm on March 12th, 1967, a New Mexico State University student was hiking in a desert area near Picacho Peak, New Mexico, when he spotted a big round silvery object hovering in the air just above a rocky hill about 500 yards away.  He prepared his 4″ X 5″ Press Camera, set it at F8 and 1/100 shutter speed, and snapped one good black and white picture of the object.  It appeared stationary or was moving very little at the time of the photograph.  He looked down to change the plates of his camera, needing only 3 seconds, but when he looked back to take another shot, the object was gone.  He recalled smelling an electrical odor in the air too!

1967 Waterbury, CT, USA:  On May 26th, somewhere around 9:30pm this object passed over Interstate Highway 84. Investigators said several car engines stopped and the cars had to coast off to the side of the highway.  This UFO is said to be a thousand feet across and made no sound while the lights flashed on and off in a pattern.  

An on-duty law enforcement officer whose name was withheld from public press release took the photograph,

1967 Cumberland, Rhode Island, USA:  At 7:15pm on July 3, Joseph L. Ferriere went to east Woonsocket to investigate reports of a strange object flying around in the area, he spotted a large cigar-shaped object hovering in the sky.  After taking four pictures of the object he noticed a smaller disc-shaped object coming out from the larger object and took a picture of the disc-shaped object also.

Note: At this time, I don’t know who took this picture.

1977 Centeno, Argentina:  Shaped like a giant sombrero, this UFO hovered outside of Centeno for an unknown period of time and was photographed by an anonymous source. A similar object was witnessed in Ontario, Canada two years earlier.
