    Apparently this is Polish wrestler Stanislaus Zbyszko (1879?-1967), who is the subject of this page at the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame website.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    whyaduck: Thanks for helping us track down the correct name of man depicted in this photo. We'll change the source data and reload the description.
  • Joe said:
    After seeing this recently added photo, I'm wondering if maybe the photo above is not Stanislaus Zybszko, but his younger brother, Wladek. On the Internet, many photos identified as Stanislaus Zybszko show him wearing a moustache, while photos of Wladek invariably show him without facial hair.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    whyaduck: We believe the photo is of Stanislaus Zbyszko. Check the other picture of him at this link: www.wrestling-titles.com/personalities/zbyszko_stanislaus/

    The Washington Post (1877-1954) - Washington, D.C. Date: Oct 17, 1911 Start Page: 4 Pages: 1 Text Word Count: 647 Los Angeles, Cal., Oct. 16. -- President Taft spent today in insurgent southern California, and received a hearty welcome in Los Angeles and Pasadena. The streets were thronged, and there were cheers all along the route. It was entirely a nonpartisan reception, Senator Works and Gov. Hiram Johnson, of the insurgent wing of the Republican party, accompanying Mr. Taft on all his travels. pqasb.pqarchiver.com/washingtonpost_historical/access/242...

    The images actually show President Taft in Oakland for the Cornerstone ceremony for Oakland City Hall on October 13, 1911. Oakland Mayor Frank K. Mott (1866-1958) is to the right of Taft, and Governor Hiram Johnson (1866-1945) is behind Taft (but cut in half). Sources: The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]), 14 Oct. 1911.

    Wighing between 23 and 25 stone, Taft was a MASSIVE man But in this picture, siting down, he looks even more massive than we know he was.
