"And so, we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

Signed F. Aquadro. I don't know the source of the information on the back, but I found a painting online ascribed to Felice Aquadro. There is also a Frederico Aquadro listed in Mallet and Davenports who lived in St. Louis. The last photo is of Lois Wilson, who played Daisy in an early movie version of The Great Gatsby.
