Nothing is obvious about the picture besides that the portrait was taken in a studio, as were most portraits in those days.

Being a Torontonian, I was once told about an old Ruv that would walk around downtown Toronto, after WW1, with a "Bekitche biz drerd and Vasse Zoken".

"performed"? Was he a Chazzan or is this a google translation from another language?
