The company team

The Shannon & Simpson Manufacturing Co. ballclub, probably around 1947. That's my dad, Ed Shannon, front row, second from right. Of the other players, I only recognize four. The smiling fellow front row center is Jack Warren, the company's salesman, and at far left is the junior partner, Art Simpson. In the back row, second from left is Bill Shannon, Dad's younger brother, and second from right is Harry Mazarro, the company's shop manager.

I feel like I should know the thin, bespectacled man between Art and Jack. He looks very familiar. Is it Al Cope? Orville Chase? Ross Cabeen? I do wish people would take the time to write down who's who in photos like this! Mom was good at that. Dad, not so much. ^^
