coal shovel

Two-panel 1940 wartime Tyneside press photography dossier: left panel shows five-year-old Robert Hall standing frozen with eyes shut in a narrow Gateshead back lane as a semicircle of mixed entities including grey-skinned 2-to-4-foot humanoids, a Bigfoot-type figure, and a bat-winged shape surround him while soldiers pass unseen on the road beyond and a glowing egg-shaped craft is visible above the lane wall; right panel shows Uncle Ernie having just struck a grey alien with a long-handled coal shovel on the Hedley Street pavement as the large-headed grey falls backward and Robert Hall has stumbled on the kerb nearby with a coal sack on the ground.
