The year is 1950: It is a very warm evening and accurate clock 23:15, as a man about 25 years old, with wide-open Eye on New York's Times Square stumbles along. From all sides it strips surprised looks of people passing by, which is not surprising: The man is dressed as if he had just come from a party with the theme of "Victorian era". strangely still as his old-fashioned clothes, however, is its origin. No one present had noticed him before. He seemed emerged directly out of nowhere be.
Just as soon as began the strange situation, but also found its end: a taxi drove the man, who stumbled on the road was suddenly and then died of his injuries.
In a study of the strange gentleman in the local morgue, however, the matter began to be even stranger. Police and the coroner discovered several old dollar bills at the end of the 19th Century had existed, some deposit tokens, a letter was dated in 1876 and eventually a few business cards with the name Rudolph Fentz and a corresponding address.
As it turned out some research at the police, it was at the Man seemingly in fact, a certain Rudolph Fentz, a man disappeared without a trace in 1876 after he had begun a short walk away. Both the appearance and the clothing should have a clear fit to the unknown, in 1950 at New York's Times Square had appeared out of nowhere.
Note & statement: Even if the above history is still in some forums, magazines, etc. appears to be factual report, it's simply a myth that has existed for almost 40 years. It is based just found out on a short story that was published in 1951 in a science fiction magazine. Author of the story was the writer Jack Finney, among other "The Body Snatchers" for his story should be known.
