Ironbeer history

The things you find on Ebay. Maybe it comes with having reached a certain age, but for whatever reason, I love browsing Ebay for items ayer. I came aross this pre-1950 photo of Manolo Rabanal, founder of Ironbeer, taken at a banquet given in his honor. Does anyone know which one of these dapperly dressed gentlemen is Sr. Rabanal?

The listing also includes an interesting history of Rabanal and Ironbeer, written by Gonzalo de Luis, it's in spanish, here.

"Ironbeer ó no beber." My favorite "refresco" since I was a kid.
