There's some good sleuthing going on here. For the record, I have no idea who this is or what corps is involved.

As for the horn, it appears to be a valve/rotor G/F, so could have been made no earlier than 1967, though some alumni players still use these. They were sweet, like a vintage T-Bird.

The snare leg rest was an endangered species by the early '70s, though still used by some show bands today (see the film, "Drumline", for example).

Upon further review, his hands are under the instrument, and could be resting on blacktop. This would be mighty uncomfortable when the sun was high except in moderate temperatures, or under cloud cover. The sunglasses counter indicate the latter.

Could his shirt be inscribed, "Hello"?

This is a good one. How about a hint from someone who knows his identity?

I can help narrow it down - it wasn't me!

Can we start getting some hints... I would like to know a general geographical area...

NYC Metro? NJ Sewer System? Upstate NY? Philly?

That's about as far as it went back then right?

Plus he's sleeping on a track - any homeless corps back then? (I was still overseas so I don't know all the facts).

Please Read Before You Post

If you *know* who it is.... please wait a while (not everyone is on here all day or even daily for that matter)

If there have been no Guesses..........Then give a *challenging* hint.

When giving hints on these try to be creative and just dangle the tiniest tidbit. Make people really think / work on it. Then wait it out a while before tossing another tiny vague tidbit...

C'mon we've got to make these last a little longer. PLEASE??

Also, any comments made MUST be made in good taste... this is a fun loving thread... not a revenge match. Please spew your venom elsewhere.

Please submit any questions and / or pics in their full size (preferably JPG format), with full description - names, Corps, Stadium, Year... etc. to:

The *Guess Who* Mailbox

Thanx in advance!

All that said and out of the way..

Guess Who # 487 ?
