Thanks -- I'll recheck it when Eastman reopens Mon; but I don't think it's in there as I looked through the Robinson within the last year and didn't find it.  There's another car pic of Caruso arriving at Camden in it, as I recall, but not that one.  (I do remember a pic in that book of him standing proudly next to his white Hardman, Peck upright piano with a Duo-Art reproducing mechanism in it!  Wonder whatever happened to that piano...another "thing" of of mine...) The one I remember has Caruso in the front seat next to the chauffeur and Child and Rogers in the rear.  (Of course the pic may be there and escaped my easily distracted notice!!) PC

> Hello all -- all the recent phono artist photos on this list reminded me that I've been trying for ages to track down a photo _I have definitely seen somewhere_ of Caruso in an open touring car in front of the Victor buildings at Camden in the company of Calvin Child and conductor Walter Rogers.  I'm most interested because of Rogers being there (it's my thing).  Has anyone else seen this who could direct me to where it might be?  It's been nagging at me on and off for years.  Many thanks for any help-- Philip Carli
I think it is in Francis Robinson's "Caruso: His Life In Pictures" which
I can't reach right now.  It's a good book to have -- it has never been
surpassed in the 50+ years since it was published -- and it is fairly
inexpensive.
