On October 5, 1952, Narvel W. Reece and his wife observed what appeared to be a spot on a photograph taken while walking toward the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C., which they submitted to the FBI.

On Sunday, 5 October, my wife and I were walking towards the Smithsonian Institute when this picture was taken. Neither of us noticed anything unusual at the time, and I think that if the "spot" on the negative and picture, would be a "thing" of reality, we would certainly have noticed it.
