The Gangbusters module Death in Spades  has some photos in it, which I posted here.  Murry Klugg is Tracy Hickman, and I think Lucius Wiese in the bottom right is Tom Moldvay, on the strength of this photo.  The two men in the top row appear to be related which makes me think they are Brian and Kevin Blume.  The others I have no idea but I bet they are also TSR employees.  Wondering if anyone knows who they are.

Maybe "Bruno" is Dave "Diesel" LaForce?

Here's Dave's website with a photo of him

You could always email him and see if he remembers those faces.

Mike.
