Catalogued under the name Stock, New York, this glass negative carries a title taken from unverified notes the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card, so the exact location and date remain uncertain. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of a New York news photo agency that supplied pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, when glass plates were still a standard way to record news and daily life. Its documentary character is worth noticing, since the agency sent photographers out to cover places and events quickly for publication.
