[[Matt Shore]] writes about the mystery surrounding a [[The Doctor's TARDIS|British police box]] being caught on photograph in [[Alabama]] in [[December]] [[1955]], despite experts agreeing it likely originated in the 1960s. He claims some experts have deemed it a prop made by hoaxers, as its windows are the wrong size. Matt adds an update claiming several readers have got in touch to report similar sightings of a [[The Doctor's TARDIS|blue box]] in the [[Punjab]] in [[1947]], [[Tibet]] in [[1935]], and twice in [[Ypres]] in [[1914]]. | [[Matt Shore]] writes about the mystery surrounding a [[The Doctor's TARDIS|British police box]] being caught on photograph in [[Alabama]] in [[December]] [[1955]], despite experts agreeing it likely originated in the 1960s.
