Joe Doolittle ?

Mon Dec 23, 2013 1:02 pm

Does any have or know of a good photo of Joe Doolittle, Jimmy's wife? I have done image searches of Google and Bing, and come up empty after several different descriptions. Seems odd that it is so hard to find a photo of him with wife :?
I'm looking for a pre-war photo of them..just out of curiosity. They often travelled all over the U.S., together, on heavily promoted Publicity tours for Shell, and you'd think there wold be a fair amount of old PR photos?

Thanks Dan.
I don't know why my websearches did not come up with these, despite several different descriptions? But You were a BIG help :D

I think I might be trying to force a square peg into a round hole? The other photos have her looking much older.

But comparing my photo taken at Shell, St Louis (wearing hat) and the 1938 photo you found,(no hat) it seems like a stretch to say they are both the same woman. Still... put on a hat, make her 6-7 years younger (You can see JD has a lot less hair in the formal photo)
and I am thinking there may be a slight possibility?
Any objective opinions?
