    There's a mention of "Miss Jean Potter and Miss Charlotte Potter" being "on the beach" at Southampton in summer 1922 (apparently visiting for the festivities surrounding a tennis tournament): chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1922-07-07/ed-... "Jean and Charlotte Potter" took part in a 1922 circus-themed fair at Agawam Park, to benefit Southampton Hospital (they helped run the roasted peanuts and popcorn concession). query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F00D16FF385D1A7A9... The two Potter girls are also listed among the young women selling programs for a performance at the Parrish Art Museum in Southampton that year (New York Tribune, 3 September 1922). I think they're the daughters of banker William Chapman Potter and Caroline Morton Potter, who were divorcing in 1922 (which might account for the girls' busy social calendar that year). Reports about the divorce mention they have two daughters, 17 and 19. Mrs. Potter was residing in Paris at the time. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30A15FB355A1B7A9... They had a half-sister, Diana Guggenheim (1924-1991), aka Diane Hamilton: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Hamilton Jean Potter married artist Frederick Soldwedel; they divorced in 1930. Then she married Lt. Edmund C. Stout; she was widowed in 1943 when he died from an accidental gunshot wound in their home in Florida. Charlotte Potter married Reginald M. Lewis in 1926, and divorced him in 1930; then she married a man named Atwood, as his second wife, c1932.

    Thanks Lu, I knew I had seen this one but kept forgetting to go back to it. It looks like the same session, at a slightly different angle. Pete, the date on this one is on the upper left side, below the white tape about an inch. It is more deteriorated than the other. :(

    This is on board a ship. August 7, 1913 NYT lists Isaac Guggenheim as a passenger on the Imperator. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9404E0DF123FE633A... Perhaps the journalist got the brothers mixed up, or perhaps both brothers were on board.
