Gallery Bouglaf wishes to deny the rumour that the Central Scrutinizer, pictured in disguise above right, and Glastonbury festival perpetuator Michael Eavis, above, are in any way connected. Following the recent appearance of this image of the Central Scrutinizer on the front page of Gallery Bouglaf, it was put about that he might in fact be Michael Eavis. The latter is seen here at the height of a "trip" with a planetary galaxy, the famous stage at his festival, and the fireball of "Aztec", estimated at between 20 kiloton and 1 megaton, Christmas Isl., 27 April 1962.� While a passing resemblance may be said to exist between the two men, the Scrutinizer, in or out of disguise, is not now nor ever has been a member of the Glastonbury faction.

This spectral bompic was taken by Dr Harold E. Edgerton, a master-innovator in� high-speed stroboscopic photography. The photo shows the first microsecond of a nuclear bomb test, the eerie, earliest blooming of the plasma fireball.�� The catalogue of Edgerton's photographs refers to the item only as "Atomic bomb explosion. Before 1952."
