Seuss. said:
Austrian composer and violinist Friedrich "Fritz" Kreisler arrived on the Olympic on December 28, 1921 with his wife Harriet to begin his concert tour. Note the movie cameras. Some of the footage is available on youtube - www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_F1EU3HI4E though I wonder if it isn't actually from an earlier (1920) sailing. They really did like the cameras see also

Richard Norton and Seuss., thanks for linking the various other images and biographical information for Fritz Kreisler. Will update the records accordingly!

Richard Norton said:
There were at least 7 photographers present taking images, but we only know of the set taken by Bain because Bain was thoughtful enough to donate them to the Library of Congress and the LOC was thoughtful enough to scan them and release them from copyright.

I think the caption should probably be "Kreislers." Possibly when he sailed to Europe on the Rotterdam on June 10, 1920 with $20,000 worth of food draft orders on the Hoover relief food warehouses in Vienna, to distribute to the needy of Austro-Hungary. See Norwich bulletin., June 11, 1920, Page 1, column 6, near bottom chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82014086/1920-06-11/ed-... NYT of Jun 11, 1920 www.nytimes.com/1920/06/11/archives/kreisler-sails-for-eu... indicated that he sailed with his wife.
