Notes on AMG’s Thousand Model Directory 10

ZJ13 is another variety catalogue, and in the directory several name changes can be seen.

Mac Badgwell is now Floyd Badgwell.

Don Brown becomes H. Brown.

Dan Hardy is shown as Steve Hardy.

Here is a complicated one: Jim McCorkle is listed as Rocky McCorkle. In the directory, Al Hemsley is also given the code ZJ 12 and a place in the ZJ13 catalogue, but there is space for him in the YJ album and catalogue, where I think he really belongs.

John Winship duals

As I was looking for the next mages to use in my “First Impressions” series (here, most recently), I was reminded of John Winship’s assorted duals — not just with Jim McCorkle, but with Leonard Chambers and Laddie La Porte. These pairings are sometimes confused — McCorkle for La Porte — perhaps because of the tiny studio thumbnails (or the handwritten catalogue captioning).
