There is a very similar image of Eben Dorr IV on p. 44 of ''Pensacola: The Deep Water City'' (1982). It is probably from the same session, but is not the same image. He is looking head on as opposed to slightly-to-the-right here. Also, the image is much less spotted than this one, but is of less resolution.
