The sitter pairing in this glass negative is recorded as Mary and Herbert Rawlins, though the title comes from caption cards and data supplied by the Bain News Service and has not been independently verified, so the identities should be treated as provisional. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, which grew out of a news photography agency Bain founded in New York around 1899. Its wire-service images, made on glass plates for rapid reproduction in newspapers, record a broad range of people and events in the early twentieth century. Viewers interested in the sitters should check the caption and any related records for further detail.
