Jerry Sprague compiled this collection of newspaper clippings, magazine articles, and other memorabilia to document and preserve the world-wide coverage of the Huron County, Michigan, alien hoax.

Many of the articles featured the “space man” in full alien regalia after being apprehended by the local police and identified him as Jerry Sprague. However, Sprague was not captured while wearing the costume nor would he agree to pose for the photo, so a similarly-sized officer is concealed beneath the layers. For a look at these photos and more check out the Blue Man scrapbook (pdf).

The yellowed pages are from the original scrapbook. A more current newspaper article was added at the time of scanning in 2018.
