The record identifies this glass negative only by the name Paul Carter, a title the Bain News Service attached to its files, and the cataloguers note that it has not been verified. The Bain News Service was a New York press photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain around 1898 to supply newspapers with pictures of current events, public figures and everyday news. Its negatives, most of them on glass, now form the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Without a confirmed date or identity, this plate is best read as one example of the agency's broader output.
