Need help with some identification of a photo

BTW, I'm still trying to solve the mystery...I am just too damn curious now. The guy on the end does look Arthur Lake but then I'm not sure.

Also could the woman be Dorsey's wife? Jane Dorsey. I think it looks like Tommy Dorsey (as you say) but he has his glasses off.

Here is a pic of Jane Dorsey:

Thanks for you help!

Although, I'm pretty sure its Jimmy Dorsey now. I've never seen a photo of Tommy with his hair that long either. :2cents:

Zguy, if you really want to pursue the quest, my parents used to get Reminisce Magazine - my mom went to high school with the publisher. . .

"The magazine that brings back the good times" focuses on the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s. They publish vintage photographs that readers submit. You could send a copy of your photo in and ask the readers to help. That would be a wider audience of folks who lived during that time. . .

Here's the home page for Reminisce:

Thanks! I forgot about that. My mother-in-law subscribes to it. :cheers:

Ewww.... Bella is drinking Papst. :puke: :laugh:

That is an awesome picture though. The guy on the far right looks like he is kind of awed to be sitting there. He may not be someone famous at all.

I would do a search for Hollywood historians and maybe contact one of them. Not only would you have a better chance of finding out who those people are, you may be filling in a little bit of history.

:cheers:
