Hinwil and Billy Meier's Pleiadians

From 1975 the Swiss farmer Eduard Billy Meier produced hundreds of sharp colour photographs of Pleiadian beamships hanging over the hills of the canton of Zürich. Some of the models turned up at his house: discs made from dustbin lids and toy parts, hung on thread. His portrait of the Pleiadian Semjase was traced to a frame from Dean Martin Presents the Golddiggers — the woman is the dancer Michelle Della Fave. The dinosaurs he claimed to have photographed on a trip through time are copies of Zdeněk Burian's paintings from a book on Meier's own shelf.
