Have you never seen it?
Hi internos,
I've followed up on this photo a bit since you posted your request a while ago...
From the limited information which I had been able to find, it seemed that this photograph was printed on page 5 of the 27 May 2002 issue of a Russian
periodical entitled "NLO" in article which had a title which roughly translates as "where are stored the corpses of newcomers".
A Russian colleague, Mikhail Gershtein, was generous enough to search though his collection of the relevant magazine and sent me the following
information:
(1) NLO is a colour tabloid, published in St.-Petersburg (4 issues per month). Editor - Tatyana Kamchatova. Mikhail does not have a very high opinion
of the publication...
(2) Mikhail confimed that this photo was indeed printed in the "NLO" magazine, 27 May 2002 on p. 5.
(3) This photo was an illustration for the article "Where the alien bodies stored?..", author Svetlana Anina.
(4) The photo had a caption : "This is one of the alien bodies, stored on the secret military base".
Mikhail Gershtein also kindly provided an email address for the author of the article - Svetlana Anina.
I emailed Svetlana during February about the origin of this photo. She confirmed that she wrote the relevant article but stated "unfortunately the
initial materials I used for writing it haven't even survived on the disk of my computer, so I can only guess that the illustration in question was
taken from the Internet". She mentioned that in many cases (though not always) the illustrations in the NLO magazine are provided not by the author
of the article but by the magazine itself.
I also emailed the NLO magazine itself in February. I have not had any response and, at this stage, do not expect to receive one. Contact details are
on NLO's website:
user.rol.ru...
Kind Regards,
Isaac
