Dmitry Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Looks like it could be from around the same time when Louis Armstrong was young. I wonder who could it be. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 I'm not sure, but I think I see faint evidence of Trotsky airbrushed out of the photo to his left... Quote
catesta Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 D, I have no idea. Where did you find it? Quote
Dmitry Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Posted August 22, 2003 I have no clue either. I saw this photo for sale and thought maybe one of the gurus might have an idea... Quote
Christiern Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 I'll run it past Dan Morgenstern--unless this is a totally unknown man, somebody at Rutgers should have a clue. I'll be back! Quote

jazzbo Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Or a little bit like a YOUNG Freddy Jenkins. . . Quote
Free For All Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Looks a little like Wynton. . . . .....or is it Buddy Bolden? B) Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Not Jabbo, he had a longer, thinner face. Quote
John L Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 (edited) A young Cootie Williams? Edited August 22, 2003 by John L Quote
JSngry Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 (edited) Maybe it's not anybody of note? Seriously - it looks like a kid to me. Edited August 22, 2003 by JSngry Quote
catesta Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Maybe it's not anybody of note? Seriously - it looks like a kid to me. Perhaps Kid Mnytime of Baton Rouge. Quote
Noj Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 (edited) Throw a Clipper jersey on him and I'd swear it was Elton Brand. Seriously, I agree he looks like a youngster. Edited August 22, 2003 by Noj Quote
Christiern Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 He actually looks a lot like a conservative writer for the NY Post who often appears on TV talk shows (name escapes me). Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted August 22, 2003 Report Posted August 22, 2003 Nobody said he looks childish. Best guess so far is Lon's Freddy Jenkins. Quote
Dmitry Posted August 27, 2003 Author Report Posted August 27, 2003 Thomas "Tick" Gray, King Oliver's trumpet player... A plausible guess? Anyone has a photo of him to compare? Quote
Dmitry Posted August 29, 2003 Author Report Posted August 29, 2003 [a really young] Bubber Miley? That's it. I've ran out of ideas. Good bye, unidentified young man with a horn. Quote
