Description
The back of the picture says "Swisher Studios, Chicago". Bobby was Sonia´s only son. He was born in Chicago, where this picture was taken, circa 1923. Sonia and her husband Emmanuel, with Bobby, moved back to where Sonia was born, for the Grand Soviet Experiment, in Russia. The Czar had been removed, Lenin was in power, and many looked to Russia as the start of a movement which would sweep the world, and provide equality amongst peoples. There would be no robber barons, no uber rich, but only system of everyone working together, for the betterment of all. It was called: Communism. Unfortunately, before too long, Stalin came into power, and there were many were More Equal Than Others, (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Farm)
First Emanuel was said to have died in some labor camp in the 30's and then Sonia died also. Bobby lived for years and was raised in the Soviet Union. See Mort´s book about how he was brought back to the U.S., where he died in New Haven, Connecticut.
