    Apparently this is Polish wrestler Stanislaus Zbyszko (1879?-1967), who is the subject of this page at the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame website.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    whyaduck: Thanks for helping us track down the correct name of man depicted in this photo. We'll change the source data and reload the description.
  • Joe said:
    After seeing this recently added photo, I'm wondering if maybe the photo above is not Stanislaus Zybszko, but his younger brother, Wladek. On the Internet, many photos identified as Stanislaus Zybszko show him wearing a moustache, while photos of Wladek invariably show him without facial hair.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    whyaduck: We believe the photo is of Stanislaus Zbyszko. Check the other picture of him at this link: www.wrestling-titles.com/personalities/zbyszko_stanislaus/

    On this night, 27 February 1960, Dawn Fraser broke two world records in North Sydney Olympic Pool, having broken two there only a week before on the 20th. Ilsa Konrads had broken world records there in previous years. Source: North Sydney Olympic Pool website

    This image has a wonderful luminous quality - the girls look as if they are glowing too. A fine photograph. Thanks!
