The only identifying details for this glass negative are two names, C.F. Phillips and Owen Cattell, and the record notes that the title comes from caption cards and has not been verified. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency founded around 1899 that supplied newspapers and magazines with news and feature photographs. The collection holds many thousands of early twentieth-century negatives, often portraits and event pictures whose subjects were recorded only briefly. Without a date or place in the record, the pairing of these names is best treated as a starting point for research rather than a settled account.
