    Sometimes called the Big Tim Sullivan Association Timothy Daniel Sullivan (July 23, 1862 – August 31, 1913) was a New York politician who controlled Manhattan's Bowery and Lower East Side districts as a prominent figure within Tammany Hall. He was euphemistically known as "Dry Dollar", as the "Big Feller", and, later, as "Big Tim" (because of his large stature). During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, he controlled much of the city's criminal activities between 14th Street and the Battery in New York City. He is credited as being one of the earliest ward representatives to use his position to enable the activities of criminal street gangs.

    The Association quite liked outings to College Point. See some details here: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3682650860/ And since we can see the date on the plate of "6/30/13", here is the report from the next day's New York Times: OUTING MINUS "BIG TIM"; Boweryites Miss Absent Chieftain on Their Annual Excursion" query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9D05E4D71139E6... Highlight of the fun and games was a baseball game of teams comprised of Lean Men versus Fat Men. Read the linked story to see who won.
