Chet:
I have seen photos of Decca London (which hosted a number of name
artists), but sadly very little of Decca New York (which was at 50 West
57th St.). The Library of Congress has a few session photos contributed
by Will Gottleib that from ca. 1946 or so, but I don't recall ever
seeing photos of the control room.
