October 5, 1954, unknown place, Côtes-du-Nord:

Reference for this case: 5-Oct-54-cotes-du-nord.
Please cite this reference in any correspondence with me regarding this case.

Summary:

In January 1955, in his magazine The Saucerian, in an article about the occupants of the flying saucers in France in 1954, the American Gray Barker reports without giving a source that a traveling salesman of the Côtes-du-Nord saw "a quite unusual phenomenon."

It was a pink-colored flying cigar. Out of it stepped a zebra-striped creature which changed color, from red to green, like a chameleon.

One finds, perhaps, this case only in a web database; which had only one record for "Côtes-du-Nord", with the dates October 5, 1954.

Reports:

[Ref. gbr1:] GRAY BARKER:

Explanations:

Very dubious case.

The date must be taken with cautious as I cannot guarantee that [ubk1] is the proper match for [gbr1].

"Côtes-du-Nord" were a French department in Brianny, renamed Côtes-d'Armor in 1990:
