Summary

Description
English: monotone non horizontal view of a supposed curvilinear centrally domed UFO relatively motionless (no blur) above an electrocommunications pole plus cables with deciduous trees. The lighter tone of the UFO upper part relative to the lower suggests a degree of reflection of light. There is perhaps a little cloud to the right of the image, which could be part of a low-level cloud formation. A less granularitously intense band partially transverses the horizontal plane of the image, terminating leftwardly to approximately where the two phone-lines intersect. An apparent squiggle-like less intense tonal area is at the upper left of the image
Date July 1952
