  "Harry N. Atwood on His Record Breaking Trip from St. Louis to New York, 1265 miles, August 14 to 25, 1911" – From postcard – Aerofiles "By 1911, Harry Atwood, a student of the Wright brothers, had become one of America's most celebrated aviators. He stunned New Yorkers with his daredevil flight among Manhattan's skyscrapers and thrilled the country when he landed his biplane on the South Lawn of the White House. His 1911 record-setting distance flights from Boston to Washington and from St. Louis to New York brought international fame." – OhioLINK

  Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum (my great-grand-father) is the gentleman on the left with the beard. Being a founder of the JDC or Joint was among his many significant accomplishments. I do not know who the other unidentified person on the right is though I bet the JDC might. My other guess of who might know is my grand-uncle his son. Another place that might know is the Jewish Museum in NY which had the same picture hanging for many years.
