The record identifies this glass negative as "Capt. Daly Football," a title the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card, though the library notes it has not been independently verified. Captains were often the best-known figures on a team, so the picture most likely shows a player leading a squad or posing with a football. George Grantham Bain's New York agency supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, when sports was a popular subject. The record gives no date, so the exact season and team remain unknown.
