"Dead cat" ? :0 No. :) Some sort of Mustelid (weasel family - mink, for ex.) .You can see the snout. Ears too small to be a fox.

Looked at this one a few times now, trying to find a matching wedding, and finally got it!
The problem is the date is wrong. The following pic in the Poole catalogue is 21 May 1929. The previous one is 8th April 1929. So I thought what if it's not October, but late April?
Meet John Murphy marrying Johanna Hearne, 25th April 1929. He is an accountant, Kilmeaden

query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F4091EFD3F5412738... SEES POLICE FLYING AFTER AIR BURGLARS " Mile-a-Minute" Murphy, the Department's Only Licensed Pilot, Talks of Aero Sleuths. SCOUTS TO PROTECT CITY Expects Robbers to Take to Aeronautics as Soon as the Profits Look Promising. New York Times August 14, 1914 The use of the aeroplane as an instrument of war, which now has been proven in a spectacular way by the European belligerents, furnishes another convincing argument for Charles M. Murphy, better known as "Mile-a-Minute" Murphy, who is trying to demonstrate how these machines are undoubtedly going to be used by the police, sooner or later.

TVL 1970 and Richard Arthur Norton--Thank you for the colorful story of "Mile-a-Minute Murphy" and his idea of police using airplanes to catch criminals. We will add some of it to the image description when we update.

The machine on the picture is a design of Giuseppe Bellanca , actually his third design - a parasol wing construction - dating from the fall 1911, built in New York. The machine was used as a trainer, that is the trainee was in the plane actually flying and the instructor was on the ground (!), as the machine was a single seat one. A pupil became later very famous, Fiorella H. LaGuardia in later times the mayor of New York. Reference: Spencer, Jay P. 1982. Bellanca C.F. The emergence of the cabin monoplane in the United States. ISBN 0-87474-881-X. p. 12-15. A Smithsonian production. This study shows two other pictures (one in flight !) of the machine. Kees
