The record identifies this glass negative only by the name Harry Vallon, and the Library of Congress notes that this title comes from unverified caption data, so the sitter's identity and the occasion are not confirmed. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Its pictures were usually captioned for quick publication, which is why many surviving prints carry names and details that later researchers must check. The 5 by 7 inch glass format was a common choice for press work of that era.
