It's very possible that the photo you're talking about is one that was taken in
early March 1956, when Fischer went along with members of the Log Cabin Chess
Club in New Jersey for a tour of Havana, Cuba. Fischer played at the Capablanca
Chess Club in Havana, where he gave a 12-board simul, winning 10 games and
drawing 2. Whitaker might have been a member of that Log Cabin Chess Club
contingent. The driving force behind that club was E. Forry Laucks,

There's a good chance that you're right. Whitaker dedicates his book
"Selected Endings" it to Forry Laucks. And maybe it was Cuba instead
of Mexico.
