I sent you a PM about another photo. Attachment 101452
Is the entire back covered with dried glue? If so, it looks to me like it was at one time glued to board, presumably with a caption or other text at the upper left where the cut-out is now. I've had photos in this condition before, with the remnants of an orangish-colored glue dried to the back, but no longer affixed to the board. And have on a couple of occasions had a photo affixed to a board but the glue was coming loose so that you could easily grasp one corner and pull the photo free from the board. Apparently the glue doesn't hold forever.

Polite corrections for unidentified and misidentified photos appreciated. Rude corrections also appreciated, but less so.
