this picture is really classic, and shows what it was really like in Hollywood back in the day.
Janet Lindenmuth said:
That's labor leader William D. "Big Bill" Haywood in the middle: www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/haywood/HAY_BHA... I'm pretty sure this is from the Paterson New Jersey Silk Strike in 1913. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paterson_Silk_Strike_of_1913
Janet Lindenmuth said:
I checked the 1910 Paterson census and there was an Albert McBrier who was an undertaker and some Kitays who owned a clothing store in Paterson, so it's definitely the Paterson Strike.
Art Siegel said:
The strike took place between February 1 and July 28, 1913. (see Wikipedia entry)

I wrote a brief article on Haywood and used this image as an illustration. susanbarsy.com/2012/10/06/big-bill-haywood/
