Rhodes UFO photographs
The Rhodes UFO photos, sometimes called the shoe-heel UFO photos, are two photos that were reportedly taken on July 7, 1947 by amateur astronomer and inventor William Albert Rhodes. The photographs purport to show a disc-like object flying above Phoenix, Arizona. Rhodes's account and photographs were published by the Arizona Republic on July 9. The photos were included in original saucer witness Kenneth Arnold's 1952 book The Coming of the Saucers, and they were reprinted multiple times by magazine editor and early UFO conspiracy theorist Raymond Palmer. The Rhodes photographs have been described as among the "first" and "best" purported UFO photographs, and the sighting was featured on multiple lists of 'Top UFO Sightings' in Arizona. Air Force files categorized the Rhodes Photos as a "possible hoax". (Wikipedia).
