    "Raymond Orteig (1870 – 6 June 1939) was a French American hotel owner in New York City in the early 20th century. He is best known for setting up the $25,000 Orteig Prize in 1919 for the first non-stop transatlantic flight between New York City and Paris, which was claimed by Charles Lindbergh eight years later in 1927."

    This photo was clearly at the same location as a neighboring photo in the stream. Marie Dressler and Jane Miller (LOC)

    The date of 5/23/27 written on the negative relates to the occasion when the Orteig prize was won by Charles Lindbergh.
  • Richard Norton said:
    Thank you to the Bain employee that properly refiled the image in 1927, back to its 1925 proper place after copying.
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks swanq for the identification and noticing the date issue.
