..not so fast!! Let's just wait for a second look/authenticity of a second book to include the Japanese version of dates & stamps. I think it's worth to double ck all versions of poss data in the AE saga. Hand tight!!!
All well and good - we do not want to make any hasty judgments here. But a book with a 1935 publication date is pretty solid evidence; such dates are seldom given in error. We should remind ourselves that the AE episode on the HC has provided no evidence at all that the picture is from 1937, or even the 1930s in general.
Meanwhile, the Mili/Jaluit crowd made an extremely hasty judgment, and then labeled this as "proof" in the History Channel presentation. The only thing that was proved here was that those who made this claim have NO CREDIBILITY. No rational, trained historian would ever make such a claim on so little evidence. It cannot be proven that the seated figure is a female, or caucasian, or a specific individual of any name, let alone AE
I have previously made comparison to the many ancient alien episodes, also on HC. These stories are filled with a population of people who have no apparent credentials - an academic position at a reputable university with a graduate program, for example - and my guess is that AE episode has a similar cast of characters.
I have also read it said that in the photo "she" is gazing on "her airplane" behind the freighter, when it appears to me that there is a fairly significant-sized boat interspersed between the two.
I doubt there was a professionally trained photo analyst, any more than the so-called experts in the ancient alien episodes.
