Can't be. One photo is from Ruth's playing days--1935 at the latest. In the other, Ruth is retired and definitely more aged. Photos are, I would say, three years apart, at least. But the kid hasn't aged a day.

I'm certainly no expert, but his nose appears to be shaped completely different. This is a good one for Mark to look at.

The kid in the top photo has a small scar on his left cheek. Or it doesn't show in the bottom photo.

Joey,

I think there's a strong difference in the jaw line area. I think in the lower photo the kid has a strong jaw line with a mature looking chin.
