Default Postcard Experts Unite!

I’ve come to realize there are many WWI era postcard / photo experts here. An enterprising fellow is representing this item as an Addie Joss RPPC from early 1900’s. Opinions please?

Phil!!! When I first saw the post, my immediate reaction was It’s Giligan. But I thought, nah, OP asked a serious question and is entitled to a serious answer, so I did not post that. But now that it’s out of the bag, total Giligan!!!

BTW- I do not think that is Joss, but I am 0% NOT a Joss expert.

OK Gilligan it is! Well, I guess it lacks a certain credibility. Thanks folks

I can tell you this, from what I have seen, Joss was a pretty goofy looking dude, kind of Giligan(ish), so maybe… But I would take with a large grain of salt

Does not look like Joss to me either. Is there any provenance with the postcard? Can you show a picture of the back of the postcard?

Far from the worst ID claim we've ever seen, but that's not saying much.

That is awesome! Gilligan photo bomb!!! All joking aside, it does look more like you again than Addie Joss. After analyzing facial features it is absolutely not him.
