Mystery Image #19

Posted in unidentified photographs, tagged , , on October 23, 2009 | 5 Comments »

This is a photo of an athletic team, but I’m not sure which one or when it was taken (1960s?).  I think it may be the tennis team, because I’ve seen the coach in other pictures.  Do you know?  Can you identify the coach or any of the team members?

If you’re new to this blog, let me explain what the mystery images are all about.  We have a large photograph collection that contains images of RPI people, subjects and events.  When photographs arrive in the Archives from various sources, we file them into the collection.  This all works great — when the photos are [...]

The mystery of this image is not what is it or who is it, but when is it?    The photograph pictures a parking lot east of Blaw-Knox and north of the academic campus.  The location looks more like a military base than a college campus!  The paved area is only half the size of what [...]

Here we have another professor at the blackboard pose to ponder.  Please identify this prof and leave a comment.  If you happen to recognize the formula(s), feel free to share that information as well.

The Mystery Image is a place this time instead of a person.  I have a feeling that I have seen this house before — possibly in the Troy vicinity, but I can’t quite place it.  I’m kind of getting ahead of the seasons by posting a winter scene in early November!  Do you know where [...]

I don’t have much to say about this image — I’m clueless.    Can you identify the professor?  the student?  the equipment?  If so, please leave a comment!

Bravo to our blog readers.  All of the mystery images that have been posted thus far have been identified!  So let’s move on to the next image. This must be a very serious scholar (you’ve seen pictures of Da Vinci haven’t you??).  Can you put a name with this face?

I have two different views of this prof for you to consider and therefore two photos that need to be filed in the right place. The computer in the first view may help place him in time. I was curious about the sign below the prof in the computer picture so I enlarged it and [...]

I kind of have a feeling that I should know who this guy is — but I don’t. Architecture — got that. Professor — check. If it’s obvious to everyone but me, then so be it. Let the comments roll! How about that pointer — doesn’t it seem a little out of proportion? Maybe everything [...]
