Chicago - revisited

I love it when there's something written on a slide. In this case "Aug 17 1952, Isobelle, Ola (?), Mabel, Bill and Vera front of 7439 St. Lawrence".  Damn. 70 years and 12 days ago.

It also gives me a chance to go hunting on Google to figure out which State and/or City this was.

And lo and behold - it's 7439 S St Lawrence Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60619, USA.  Thanks to, Google Streetview, we even have a picture of the property.   How cool is that ?

2019 on Google

1952 and 2019

Bonus : Music - Meh. Animation - Yeah.

The Young Sophocles

 

The slide was marked "donaghue 1858-1903 chicago", which immediately confirmed my theory that this is The Young Sophocles, by John Talbott Donoghue.

Still pretty tedious.

Bonus - Smokers are 60%-80% more likely to be admitted to hospital with Covid-19 and also more likely to die from the disease compared with those who have never smoked, study finds.

Bonus 2

Bonus - Genius is knowing who's ideas to rip off.
