One of the all time greats! I just mentioned him in a comment recently and can't think where??? It's part of the "getting-old-heimers" I suffer from.

Interesting - although I can't find reference to a Tom Mix visit to Dublin in The Irish Times, from 1920-1929. Although there are references to his visting England twice, in 1925 and 1929. Is there any more detail about the photo?

vandillo Hmm! Have been investigating. Found the refs to England in 1925 and 1929. Checked a load of newspapers, and did find one reference to a proposed visit to Dublin, but that was late 1930s. Will keep searching. However, metadata on these W.D. Hogan photos is usually pretty reliable...

Info from "Cody Pictures" website: www.wyomingtalesandtrails.com/cody5.html----------- "Joseph Jesse Faver "Fay Jay" Hiscock (F. J. Hiscock) (1874-1951), was originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan. He remained active in photography in Cody from his arrival in 1904 until the early 1940's, and sold packages of photographs to tourists. The packages were primarily of the Cody Road. In his advertising he referred to himself as 'The Picture Man.'"
