A few weeks ago, Anthony Riccio sent me this picture taken in the North End and asked if I could identify the men. Anthony is writing a book about the North End that will be published later this year. The book will consist of pictures and interviews collected by Anthony when he worked at the North End’s senior citizens club back in the 1980s. He would like to accurately identify as many of his subjects as possible.

The picture was labeled as being taken in front of a building at 175 Endicott Street. The building is now a condominium, but was previously owned by a man named Pantaleone Mercurio whose granddaughter, Marie, still lives on Endicott Street.
