dear colleagues, does anyone have an idea who Al Speede was, mentioned on p. 291 of Vineland?

" Then there was Wade, my ol' canasta partner and picket-line buddy, fighting shoulder to shoulder all those years, one day he went over, and we stayed friends, and finally you saw what'd it matter who'd be taking those dues off the paycheck, Al Speede's people, th' IATSE, whatever."

google doesn't seem to know him
thank you
Mx
