J. Lawrence Cook played a Hardman Duo Piano

The liner notes on the reverse side of the record cover give no indication that Lawrence was involved in the actual recording. However, his music rolls, played on a Hardman Duo Player Piano, are in good company with accompanying musicians, Milton Hinton, Tony Mottola, George Duvivier and Osie Johnson. -doctorjazz.co.uk

Previously posted another image of this wall entitled Bread (on Sutphin Blvd) but have since identified a possible name of the business. This pentimento also has the words “Castle” and “Beach” peeking through. Any leads on this, please comment.

Get Shorpy – The 100-Year-Old Photo Blog


My buddy Julian Seery Gude, great great grandson of advertising pioneer OJ Gude, turned me on to this blog. Great vintage photos. Above are Vincenzo, 15 years old, and brother Angelo, 11 years old, baking bread for their father at 174 Salem Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. February 1, 1917
