Talk:George Henry Powell

Incorrect photo

The photo on the page is of well-known comic bandleader Spike Jones ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike_Jones ), not George Henry Powell.

Here's a similar photo of Jones taken at the same time, correctly identified by the BBC:

It's possible the error originated via some reference to the 1942 recording Jones made of the song "Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit-Bag, and Smile, Smile, Smile," co-written by George Henry Powell.

The incorrect photo used on the Wikipedia page has proliferated to many other sites.

Can't log-in to fix photo

Thankfully, somebody else has noticed that this article uses Spike Jones' picture, so, maybe some year, some one will notice and fix it.

I haven't logged-in in a long time, and now it appears I can't. Therefore, since I don't have access to a replacement photo of Powell, I guess I'll just leave the wrong one up rather than have my changes flagged for redundancy and removal... or whatever they're doing these years.
