I know I am responding to a post nearly a year old, but I still had to respond. At one point I made it a goal of mine to find a smiling Landis photo, I was happy to add this to my collection when I found it.

HUGE Twilight Zone fan here - saw your "smiling Landis" photo and I instantly thought of THIS guy - "Marvin the Butler", Cyril Delevanti:

..these are the 1937 Type 5's from the R314 Goudey Premiums set , the 'wide pens' ; International League : Toronto and Montreal , and then they added a dozen Tigers ( because in the winter Detroit might as well be in Canada )

You wouldn't think that being surrounded by a teaming mass of boys would bring out the grin from within Landis...I would have expected another outbreak of extreme Frowny Face. Just shows you can't judge a Judge by his commissioner cover.

I believe he is 'eee-yahing', a physical feat that evidently only Hughie ever perfected.
