Mel in Barcelona, Correction Yadda
I am so sorry. Once again, I must ask you to publish a correction. Surely this sets some record; many people make long series of errors, but almost none of them discuss it in public. So here is the fourth or so in the series of corrections I have been forced to make to the photograph from our archives that shows Mel (the little bearded man who keeps appearing, albeit posthumously, in your letters column) during his brief visit to the city of Barcelona in 1929, My colleagues have furnished convincing evidence that the man indicated in my last letter as being Mel is not Mel but is someone other than Mel. I have indicated on this corrected version what I now believe to be the true location of Mel as best we are able to determine. As I wrote in my previous letters, ?Unfortunately he is not facing directly the camera, so the identification cannot be 100 percent.? I hope you can print this corrected corrected corrected corrected corrected photograph.
