The gang at “Pawn Stars” would have an “expert-buddy” dissect the situation.

I have a Fourth Grade Reader text book from 1918. Today it's a college level reader.

It should surprise nobody that there were much more educated and well versed individuals at the turn of the 1800's into the 1900's per capita than there are today.

Pretty cool and weird stuff. But hey, the Coca-Cola had real coke in it back then.

Most I guess circa 1947? With the VA document, maybe this was a WWII PTSD patient? In any case, this is a 9 on a scale of 10 on the Creepy Meter.

I am perplexed about most of it. Vivid imagination? Disturbed? I am sure the History Channel guy with the funky hair has an option too.

I didn’t read every scrap, but this collection includes stuff dating from no earlier than 1980. A lot of it seems to draw connections between UFO’s and the Bible, specifically events described in Ezekiel. This was nothing new at the time.

The four creatures depicted together are genie. Ancient doorways in Assyria would be guarded by creatures who were amalgams of a bull, an eagle, a lion, and a man. The man is always depicted bearded with a headdress like those worn by Assyrian men.

There are many illuminated gospel books depicting the four as inspiring genie for the four men - Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John - who authored the Gospels.

These headlines are so childish. Sounds like something you would typically read at Yahoo.com

It’s amazing what some people will doodle to avoid “death by powerpoint”, or whatever was the precursor to powerpoint back then.

I can’t speak to the authenticity or value of the patent drawings, but the other sketches show some talent and ability, and are clearly referencing Biblical descriptions.

It’s a bit of a peculiar mashup, though. The presumably angelic being is cloven hoofed, which throws the whole thing into an entirely different, demonic light, one that is not exactly friendly to Christianity while obviously obsessed with it simultaneously.

Nation Of Islam, imho. Mothership, wheels within wheels, all the wildest prophetic visions and descriptions from the Bible, but warped.

There is a peculiar neologism in one of the handwritten documents that jumped out at me, “interrelationship,” combining “interpolation” and “interrelationship.” That also makes me think of the sort of person who would be Nation Of Islam, a fascination with multisyllabic nickel words but not entirely rigorous in the understanding of them or the proper use of them.

I’m not a fan of David Halperin, but he’s spent a lot of time thinking about this box...

“The name of the artist appears in the box’s papers as Daniel Christiansen, sometimes also as “Nesna-it-sirhc”–which, it took me longer than it should have to realize, is “Christiansen” spelled backward. His home, it’s clear from these documents, was St. Petersburg, Florida.”

Part 1... http://www.davidhalperin.net/tag/mathias-merian/

Part 2... http://www.davidhalperin.net/the-box-of-crazy-ufos-and-ezekiels-vision-part-2/

Halperin has some interesting theories....seems maybe the guy saw a Laser Light Show and thought he was seeing the second coming of Ezekiel....or something!?!

I’m not even going to take the time or bother to post a pic of that crazy haired Tsoukalis guy.

But I’m in before it.

Story seems pretty apocryphal, they didn't even say the dumpster was.

The map showing "air routes" looks like it shows "great circles" between global points.

These would naturally be today's "air routes."

Paranoid schizophrenics frequently are very intelligent and create entire intricate universes for themselves and keep the details safely locked up away from prying eyes, mind probing beams, the CIA and aliens.

The unfortunate man probably died and his treasures were discarded.

One headline reads “Odd to see extraterrestrial UFO on the same page with angelic-looking creatures.”

It’s not odd if there is a connection between the spirit realm, both angelic and demonic, and the UFO/alien phenomenon.

I am an engineer who has worked with bearings throughout a nearly 50 year career. The bearings depicted will never work properly. In bearing production, great pains are taken to make the balls or rollers exactly equal in diameter. They are manufactured to the nearest tenth of a thousandth of an inch in diameter, or better. If they are not equal, they will slide, not roll, causing friction and heating. Unequal stresses can also cause fatigue spalls. The railroad bearings shown, with the greatly unequal diameters would quickly overheat and destroy the trucks.

This alone, makes me think that the drawings are simply doodling from a bored mind.
