Accordion player
What it is:
Photo (5 x 7 inches) inserted into a cardboard frame/folder. (I cropped most of the frame out of this scan.)
What I know about it:
Nothing! Undated and unidentified.

I get the feeling this guy knows what he’s doing. I wonder if he’s a professional, or just an avid hobbyist. The cardboard folder strikes me as the sort of thing you would use to present your photo to a relative, rather than, say, a press agent, but that doesn’t mean a professional musician wouldn’t present a publicity photo to a relative. To me, this looks more like it’s from a photographer on Main Street than an industry photographer in a recording studio. I suppose it’s the quirky juxtaposition of the accordion against the rather classical backdrop. Still, I could be wrong. Regardless, I trust that whoever owned it was proud.

I love accordions! Thanks for the great picture. . .
Thanks! I thought you might enjoy it. 🙂
At first, I thought you wrote, “an avid hypnotist.” There is something about those eyes…
Haha, that’s funny. “You are getting sleepy. And now, every time you hear ‘Lady of Spain’, you will do my bidding.” 🙂
