Cardinal Stritch and others
It's easy to recognize Cardinal Stritch (left, with mitre). The prelate to the far right in cappa magna looks like cardinal Spellman, the cardinal to his right looks like McGuigan and whoever recognizes the fourth cardinal grabbing his biretta is really, really good!

Amleto Cardinal Cicognani (1883-1973)
Before he became a Cardinal he was the Apostolic Delegate to the United States from 1933 to 1959.
Here we see him during the installation of Archbishop Francis Patrick Keough, Baltimore.

Cardinal Spellman
Are these white buckles shoes? And if yes, why have I never heard of those before? Can any reader offer any information?

Reader-Request
Reader Kim asked me to post the following photos. They were made during a Solemn Pontifical High Mass in honor of St. Peter Canisius and celebrated by His Excellency Antonio R. Tobias, Bishop of Novaliches in Seven Joys of Mary Chapel of the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate on April 27, 2010 at 10:30 am.
The cappa magna seems to be unusually shiny. As I understand, this is kind of an Asian thing, as people there like their silk this way.

Funny thing about French prelates:
Even in the late 19th/early 20st century they couldn't always really let go of those ancien regime hairdos.
