  1. I think it reads JL Clark, Central Hall Bldg(?and than maybe a number?) Blyth.

    Blyth is "over the pond" in Northumberland - on the English Channel near Newcastle on Tyne. From what I can gather, Central Hall was a place they performed music originally - an auditorium.

    The cap looks like one golfers used to wear (and there is a course in Blyth).

    This site has some cool old pictures of Blyth. I didn't see a Central Hall, however.

  5. Wow, the "framing" of the photo..looks so detailed and quite deeply embossed. I see what you mean about the big knot in his tie.
