I would too. I don't think I have heard of the find anywhere else, though. It may have been a "teaser": a term in writing parlance for getting someone to buy or read the book. While Deek Gladson (aka Carl Miller) may have had the original newspaper article this story might have come from, he did not include it in his book, only the photo. It's up to the researcher (you) to do any follow-up.
