Slee
ot New Jersey, on 31 July 1952, using a Kodak suaflex II camera,
photo

Passaic, New Jersey = 31 July 1952

se photogravhs were allegedly taken by two men at Passaic,
The

mere brought/to the attention of ATIC by a phone call from
a writer of the’ Passaic, New Jersey, newspaper, “The Herald lews".

The photos were never proven to be a hoax, however, tere ar

several points that raise doubt. One of them is the fact that tie

object appears - be large, even though \it is close to the photo-
grapher.  (No’

The farther away the larger.) The object supposedly

hovered long enough for the photographer to observe it, go into the
house and get a camera, come outdoors and take six shotos, Since it

was-over\or near a densely populated area it should have been seen

ey ie least one independent observer, but ATIC could find none.
Bar : ‘Tt would be relatively simple for even a person not completely,

familiar with photography to "fake" these photos.
