Harry Angstrom said:
may be related to famous "gunmen" case, many pictures on here; from NYTimes The arrests of "Gyp the Blood" Horowitz and "Lefty Louie" Rosenzwelg, which, it had been supposed, ended the police activity in the investigation of the murder of Herman Rosenthal, the gambler, are to be followed by other arrests if Second Deputy Police Commissioner George S. Dougherty can trail down several persons who came under his notice in his efforts to capture "Gyp" and "Lefty."
The Library of Congress said:
He sure resembles commissioner Dougherty, but given the man nearby in swimming trunks and others bundled in coats, might this be a winter swimming photo op?
