Two names, Alice Whitehouse and Natalie Alexandre, are the only identifying details this glass negative carries, and they come from the Bain News Service's own notes, which the Library of Congress has not verified, so treat them as a working label. George Grantham Bain founded the New York agency in the early 1900s to supply newspapers with photographs of public figures, performers, sporting events and street scenes. Its negatives were often made on small glass plates, usually five by seven inches or smaller, so they could be printed quickly for publication. Anyone researching these women should check the names against period newspapers and city directories before relying on them.
