The image was part of a Japanese-language travelogue about the South Seas that was published almost two years before Earhart disappeared. Page 113 states the book was published in Japanese-held Palau on 10 October 1935... It must be easily available then. Let’s see it. It’s key to the whole story.

There was a link to the book containing the photograph in the original article. CLICK HERE.

While the existence of the photo does not disprove any of the conspiracy theories about Earhart's disappearance, it does shoot down the "startling proof" that was advertised on the (alleged) History Channel*. If you take away the photo, the special shown Sunday night was just another Amelia Earhart re-hash.

* Unless the book containing the photo turns out to be a hoax.

History Story Does This Photo Show Amelia Earhart After Her Plane Disappeared ?.

Have you examined the "source page of that link ? The book can be moved around on that link.
And you can open the book's image source in a separate window. It'a been photo-shopped.
So I seriously doubt that the link proves it was published on "10 October 1935, almost two years before Earhart disappeared."
