All correct!

Obviously this one was too easy in this section :)

However, alternative intention was to give some Sunday fun for a lucky puzzler, and you're the one! Congrats!  :thumbsup:

Thank you! It was quite a challenge to find the name, before Paul Jaray notices this puzzle.  ;D

There is a typo in the header anyway.

Ok, so either your historical caption or the Standard Catalog is wrong.  :(

This text is on the opposite side of the original photo dated back to 1935-February-9 which makes it exactly(!) 80 years old!

A quite unreliable source of mine (a Spanish newspaper) of 1935 call them Hoppe y Streat.

That's two out of three for a "u" and two out of three for a "t". Democratically proven, Arunas is correct with Streut.  :lmao:

Another proof for "Streur", the Keystone caption and the tombstone of Allyn F. Streur:
