The man pictured is Gordon
"Moon" Mullins seen wearing his uniform as an Honorary
Deputy Chief of the FDNY. He was one of the members of the Fire
Bell Club of New York which is presently located at 204 East
23rd Street. He was employed for several years prior to his death
as a Fire Alarm Dispatcher in the Manhattan Central Office of
the FDNY and had badge number 11. The old Nash sedan pictured
in some of the photos carried has maltese plate (#13) given to
him when he was made an honorary chief officer (first an honorary
battalion chief and later promoted to honorary deputy chief).
(ref.: Mand
Library at the FDNY Fire Academy)
The composition, film format,
sharpness and processing all tend to indicate that this was not
taken by Weegee. The individual appears to be Gordon "Moon"
Mullins, the same one pictured in Weegee's room (see #0028).
