Titled simply "King Geo. And Royal Family," this glass negative shows a group the Bain News Service labeled as the British king and his relatives. The record gives no date, and the identification comes from the agency's caption cards, which were never verified. King George V reigned from 1910 to 1936, and pictures of the British royal household were widely run in newspapers of that period. The Bain News Service was a New York agency that supplied news photographs to papers across the country, and its glass negatives now serve as an important record of early twentieth-century news images.
