They Found a Mysterious Box in a Dumpster – What Was In It Baffles Everyone
Sunday, July 5, 2015

The box looks handmade fitted with hinges, handle and two locks.

It looks like the author had some other-world experience.

Handwritten table of elements.

Here is a patent that was never filed with the United States Patent Office – But things get weirder from here…

This diagram was dated 1939.

Weirdly this map shows air travel routes.

A lot of the maps are hand-drawn with a center to the map.

They are depicting some sort of aerial routes.

There was a bunch of maps.

With baffling mysteries that continue.

Here’s a note from the previous owner.

Yet another map.

A very old note from the Veterans Affairs office.

The artist shows us an event that took place in Tampa, FL in 1977. He states that there was extraterrestrial involved.

Very weird to see UFO’s and angelic looking beings on the same page.

Drawing of angelic being.

A brief summary of events.

Some geometric shapes.

More angelic beings that look like something out of the biblical book of Revelation.

Was this some sort of dream or did this really happen?

Some think this looks like wheels within wheels.

The drawings look like a weird mix of alien and biblical.

Close up of the corner.

Some drawings are from the patent seen before.

One of the patent drawings/diagram.

Looks like some new train wheels.

So what do you think?

Excellent discovery Prof..
The drawing dated 1946 was the year of my birth, maybe someone was welcoming me into the world of time travel

This is really interesting, Professor... Where and when was this box found?

I believe you could spend hours reading over each drawing. To me it looks like one man's Time Capsule over a 40 or 50 year time span. I need to bring it up on my Mac to see the details of each drawing, my windows 8.1 is not working as well as my mac.

The Box of Crazy with 209 images

Roughly 29" by 38" on the exterior. It smells of basements and dampness.


Most pieces are around 20" x 30", a number of the pages in here are blank.


Text on a poster (with corrections). I feel that I should comment on the content, but I really don't know what to say about this.

Nicely lettered and drawn, useful information.

It looks like the box was found in Florida and date not known.

The box itself seems to be a typical artist's portfolio. These were used to hold and transport sheets of large format paper flat during the 19th century. These boxes were made of veneers (early type of plywood). They were largely phased out by less expensive materials, probably during the 1950's - 60's. There's a large artist supply store at Market and Mission Streets in San Francisco called FLAX; they still carried these classic cases the last time I was there.

The large sheets of text are proofs from a typesetter; they're not written by hand. I don't know what typeface is being used, but if you look at the lower case letter "r" you can see how uniform the formation of that character is. There are at least two versions of Page 1, one containing corrections and added text; and at least one sheet has the circle with a cross in it in the margin which is a printing registration mark.
-
I'd hazard a guess that part of the items in the case are from an unpublished book intended to sit on the coffee tables in people's living rooms for guests to leaf through while they waited for the household member they had come to see. The subject matter had something to do with UFO's, and from some of the text I read, the author was trying to take a non-committal stance one way or the other. I have a book my dad owned after WW-2 that was similar in nature. It was a book of maps measuring about 14" x 20" that showed the changing and relative positions of Japanese and U.S. military forces in the Pacific region at different dates during the War.
