1954 - Australia. This very compelling photograph of a clearly defined round UFO with top and antenna was taken by sheep farmer W. C. Hall in 1954.
If you look real closely, you might see another unknown object in the distance just above a mountain.
An excellent photo, and for a newspaper clipping, it is in excellent condition.
Here is additional information provided by a reader:
August, 1954 - Australian Sheep Grower W. C. Hall saw six petrol tank-shaped UFOs land on his ranch in North Queensland, Australia.
His chickens, cattle and even the jack rabbits on his farm were affected by an oddly colored exhaust fumes of the UFOs, which he believed brought about a change in the genes of animal life on his ranch, due to Atomic Radiation, as various freaks were born afterwards.
An update on the W.C. Hall case.
This has always had me a bit perplexed because of the location i.e. North Queensland.
The thing is in Australia that is not sheep country.
After a fair bit of investigation I have found out that this photo was actually taken in Victoria and first published in a magazine owned by Time.
