Talk:Charles Clyde Ebbets

Skepticism and Doubt
This article relies almost exclusively on one source which appears to be primarily a store. More importantly, this article fails to recognize the controversy surrounding the claim that Ebbets took the iconic Lunch atop Lunch atop a Skyscraper photo. Indeed, even Corbis, the company that owns the photo, has classified its photographer as anonymous because of the possibility that Ebbets did not take the picture. This article from the New York Times, the most respected newspaper in the world, confirms the uncertainty: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/11/movies/lunch-atop-a-skyscraper-uncovered.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 LDTrain 07:52, 07 March 2014
 * Frankly, the whole section about that photo gives the impression of a single editor trying to make their opinion reality. Compare with the information on Lunch atop a Skyscraper, which is both more accurate and adopts a clearly neutral POV. -- Hux (talk) 22:56, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Alterations
I've been adding to this page for the past couple days under the unregistered ID. I've been trying to find biographical information on Charles C. Ebbets but am at a loss, if anyone knows additional source data let me know Jonathen snake 08:56, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Clear conflict
This article states that Lunchtime atop a Skyscraper was taken "was taken on the 69th floor of the Chrysler Building", while the main article clearly documents that it was the RCA Building. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.34.142.67 (talk) 14:15, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
