Well, there are a lot of other sources.

The idea stems from Ott Christoph Hilgenberg, who wrote a book in German 
named 'Vom wachsenden Erdball' (about the growing Earth ball).
http://www.wachsende-erde.de/web-content/bilder/hilgenb/hilgenberg1933.pdf

I knew about this theory from two sources.

One were the videos of Neal Adams:

(I have also participated in Neal Adams' mail group for a while, which 
was discussing the topic).


Another strange source was, that I have spent a lot of time in the very 
same building as Hilgenberg. And as far as I can recall there was  still 
one of Hilgenberg's expanding globe modells present in the late 70th at 
the university TU-Berlin.


I wanted a 'experimental' proof for something I have developed myself, 
which was meant as a connection between GR and QM:
