The attached photo of Frank at Ellis Island was taken by Augustus Sherman, a clerk at Ellis whose hobby was photography and who often took photos of visually interesting immigrants. (Official photos of immigrants were not a part of the process back then.) Note Sherman's handwritten notes about Frank on the image. Image sourced from the National Parks Service.
