The title names Konetchy, a subject the Bain News Service recorded as Brooklyn on its original negative or caption card, though the record does not say whether the name refers to a person, a building or a business. George Grantham Bain built his news photo service in New York at the turn of the twentieth century, and his agency supplied pictures of city life, events and people to newspapers. Because this glass negative is undated, its exact year is uncertain, but it dates from the period when Brooklyn was a busy borough of New York City, and it offers a useful glimpse of that era.
