This picture was also taken in Baltimore on the same day. I know the writing says "Very Best Wishes to you and brother". But I do not know and cannot make out the signature.

This another picture taken in Baltimore, Md. January 8, 1944. Obviously this is some sort of celebration, I just wish I knew what it was. My father is in the center forground right behind the piano player's right shoulder.
