This glass negative is titled simply "Stadium," a label the record describes as unverified, so the specific venue and occasion remain uncertain. It comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early 20th century. Plates of this small size were the working standard for press photographers of the period, and viewers studying the image can look to its seating, crowd and surroundings for clues about the event.
