• Ryan (LOC P&P) said:

  Thanks pennylrichardsca for the information about the career of James Schoonmaker. He even had a cargo ship named after him! We'll fill in the title information next time we update the record.

• Wystan said:

  Photo is inscribed with the date (in reverse), 6/25/[19]13. That was the year in which a biography of Schoonmaker was published, titled "Colonel J. M. Schoonmaker and the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie Railroad -- A Study of Personality and Ideals." You can read the complete text on Google Books: books.google.com/books?id=eH0pAAAAYAAJ&dq=j+m+schoonm...

• Barbara (LOC P&P) said:

  Wystan: Thanks for spotting the date on the negative. We can add that information to the description, too, when we update it. Nice to connect it up with the biography!
