Here is the proofreader for the New York Telegram newspaper. Stamped Apr 17 1930. |
It's Charles Conlon. His occupation was proofreading copy for the Telegram. He also took a few thousand baseball photos in his spare time.
Having the photo in hand, you can see this written on the small piece of paper tacked up in front of him:
Charles M. Conlon
189 Alden Place
Englewood NJ
It is his home address as it reads on one of his stamps!
One of my favorite photos...and the only image of him like this that I have seen.
