Bigfoot Bounty A year after the one million dollar short-lived bounty for a Sasquatch photo, here’s a look back. Hasbro produced this set in 1973, demonstrating a lengthy awareness by the company into Yeti hunts. During mid-October 2005, a proposed $1 million reward for a photograph of evidence leading to the live capture of Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman (Yeti) or the Loch Ness Monster was discussed by the media, and caused quite a stir. Initially, the Bigfoot Bounty was to be used to announce Creature Appreciation Week later in the month, by the producers of the Duel Masters Trading Card [...]
New Maine Mystery Photos: Minot Beast
The woman in Minot, Maine, was out walking her mutt, which I will call a “mutt” instead of a “dog” for the stake of alliteration and to not overuse the word “dog.” But never mind. The animal walker saw the “thing” in the distance, and couldn’t quite believe her eyes. Thank goodness it was dead, she mumbled to herself. But amazingly, she had her camera along, and snapped some photos of the “Minot Beast” (above and below, click on them to make them larger, if you dare). With whom should she share these photos, she wondered. Ah, that crime beat [...]

Bigfoot in TV Guide
Scores of people in the media find their way to me, oftentimes to ask where they can obtain this or that image.

Needless to say, I sent them to Mrs. Patterson and René Dahinden’s heirs to purchase and obtain permission. For people that missed it, here’s what TV Guide produced: Please click on the image for a full size version. Interestingly, the editorial board room discussions [...]
