    Probably Madison Square Garden as in the previous pic.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    captainslack: Thanks for the tip! It certainly does appear to be Madison Square Garden as identified in this photo. We'll add the information to the description for this image and reload it to Flickr.

    It's definitely a lot smaller than the model of the big tent that they have set up at the circus museum down in FL. I would agree with captinslack that it's almost certainly in a building.

    In July 1916 the general meetings of the National Education Association were held at Madison Square Garden (The sun., July 02, 1916, FIFTH SECTION SPECIAL FEATURE SUPPLEMENT, Page 5, chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030272/1916-07-02/ed-...).

    They were quite visibly patriotic at that time...
  • Art Siegel said:
    Also they were convening around the 4th of July.

    A copy of this photo is at boxrec.com/media/index.php/File:Rickard21.jpg. That copy is dated 18 May 1921 with no indication of the source for the photo or evidence for the date. www.fighttoys.com/rickard photo pair 1921.htm also date photos from this shoot to May 18 1921. This appears to be an offer for sale of actual photos, and indicates that there is a typed identification: TEX RICKARD Preparing for the big fight May 18, 1921. The big fight was on July 2, 1921. See www.paulbeston.com/blog/2017/4/9/dempsey-carpentier NYT coverage ran to many pages: timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1921/07/03/issue.html

    There are two dates on the negative: 9/23/27 and 5/18/21, which means that the photo was taken in 1921 and reused in 1927 by Bain News Service IMO.
  • swanq said:
    B-59 : I agree about the dates.
