The only particular detail here is the name L.J. Goodwin, which the library notes comes from unverified caption information rather than a confirmed identification. The plate belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the body of work produced by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. With no date recorded, the negative is best understood within that fast-moving news trade, when pictures were made quickly for publication and filed under the names attached to them.
