Today it would be two guys kissing and they would be celebrating Americas loss.

This is Eisenstadt photograph. What you posted (as you state) is not the Eisenstadt photograph, which was published in Life. Notice how difficult it is to read the Bond clock in this photo, it had a very short hour hand and was photographed at an oblique angle, and is outside the depth of field, iow, out of focus.

Isn’t the Chemical Bank in the background where Nana did all her banking? I think it closed. It’s gone!
