I have to tell you all when Steve sent the photo to me of this youngster with a superb Marshall figure, I really was stumped.
I had no clue that it was Bob. Steve actually made me wait for a while before he told me. I then had to go back and look and I realized it was my pal Bob.
Well take a look at Bob Isaacson at the 2010 Vent Haven Convention with 2 big dummies.

Bob Isaacson has a good-sized footprint in the present day, and it’s hard to shake that when looking at the old photo. Like you, I didn’t recognize him. I couldn’t transmogrify the young fellow in the photo into the present day Isaacson. Good mystery photo!
