Old Picture of Kanbun Uechi in Gi????

Max:
I couldn't find the original thread where we were discussing the photo you had of Kanbun Uechi in a gi. (Kanbun never wore a gi or karate belt)

Many thanks for sending me the package, including the picture. However. . . it is a picture of Miyagi Chojun. It is a very famous picture of him that I've seen many times.

Yes, this is definitely not Uechi Kanbun.
