Thank you for your response.
Maybe I wasn't clear. I am old enough to know exactly who Father Flanagan was. Having seen the Movie Boys Town with Spencer Tracy and Mickey Rooney back when channell 9 and channel 11 showed them on weekends.
What I was asking was the origin ( from a book or magazine) of this exact photo. In other words dose someone here have the book or magazine this came from?
