The MUFON Private Collections room is our largest assembly of grouped collections. There are thousands of pages here for researchers and subscribers alike that have not seen the light of day, in some cases, ever! The menu below will give you access to well know and, in some cases exclusive, illusive, mysterious and long sought after historical documents. These collections were scanned in PDF format and while some files may look small, there may be hundreds of pages in each PDF. Only minimal redacting was done to hide names of private citizens and to adhere to the wishes of some researchers should their files ever be made public.<\/p>\n
Below you are given access to 8 sub-rooms of collections. All are straight forward in name and bring you directly to those files except The MUFON File Cabinet which is the room we placed all collections in our files we could not categorize cleanly. You will find additional collections in this one room.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
