I have his name as Ben Pascham. I see his name on AMG 1000 model directory p.53 with reference numbers: YR27-A and YR13 pg 40. Sorry but I'm not familiar with the cataloguing system enough to know the significance of the two kinds of references.
Do you think they are the same fellow?
The Grecian Guild Studio Quarterly #17 p 30 has a photo labelled LEONARD KIPP who doesn't look like this guy at all.
Also, there is an entry for Leonard Kipp in the AMG 1000 model directory p.83. Its hard to tell if this is the same guy too.
It is annoying, as his identity seems to shift between Leonard Kipp and Kipp Leonard and Ben Pascham … none of whom seem right in the (admittedly minute) AMG thumbnails. For what it’s worth, I think this session belongs to the mid-40s, just after the war, so he seems out-of-place in the YR13 catalogue. (I am best on the A-Z catalogues [from 1946] and the ZA-ZZ catalogues [1948-51], but YR13 would be ca. 1952-53.) The good news is that with enough attention we might work out who this mystery guy is!
Leonard Kipp is on p. 30 of the GRECIAN GUILD’S AMG catalogue volume as XI 15, but he doesn’t seem quite right there — he has hair on his chest, for one thing. I have another photo of this fellow in a USMS cap, so that doesn’t marry well with Ben Pascham. So it all seems a muddle!

This sort of thing is always annoying.

DeleteYR 27 A is the exact photo shown; YR13, p. 40, is the catalogue page where the image can be found.
