The title on this glass negative is "Bianca B. Acker," a name the record gives only as unverified information taken from the caption cards that came with the plate. Bain News Service, a New York photo agency that supplied newspapers in the early twentieth century, made pictures like this one for quick publication, and its glass negatives have become a major part of the Library of Congress's holdings. The record gives no date, so the sitter's identity and the occasion are still open questions. Anyone researching the picture should check the name against newspapers and city directories from the period.
