Gaynor & Waldo (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Dean Z said:
    This is New York City mayor William Jay Gaynor (1849-1913) with Rhinelander Waldo (1877-1927) the seventh New York City Fire Commissioner. This appears to be the May 18, 1912, Police Parade in New York City. The New-York Tribune claimed almost a million residents lined the street as 7,784 marched in the street. Sources: New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]), 19 May 1912. Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers. Lib. of Congress.
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks Dean Z for additional information. We'll update the catalog record.

Gov. Foss & Mayor Gaynor, Polo Grounds (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • glgrozier said:
    That would be the Governor of MASSACHUSETTS Eugene Foss (not NY). Definitely a Red Sox fan -- not there for the Yankees.
  • Pete (LOC P&P) said:
    I checked Wikipedia and you're right that Foss is the Governor of Mass. We'll fix the error in the record. Thanks!

    Thanks! We confirmed that Mayor Gaynor is the person in the photo. We'll add his full name to the source data and reload the description.
