Lawrence, on the South Shore of Long Island in Nassau County, is the setting for this glass negative, which its caption identifies as a strike meeting. The record gives no date, and the title comes from caption information the Bain News Service wrote on the negatives, which has not been independently verified. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, so the image most likely dates from that period. Because the negative is a large glass plate, it captures fine detail of the crowd, the speakers, and the setting.
