Man at the table looks like Harry Naughton who would shortly become producer Louis Burtein’s nephew-in-law by marrying LB’s niece Millie. They all had worked at Vim in Jacksonville.

Re: Larry Semon - The Head Waiter
Updating the book soon.... for me that means a couple of years.
The discs will be mainly complete films but will include fragments as extra material. Hoping to have the complete Galloping Ghosts.
