The record names its subject only as "Cora Chase," a title taken from the Bain News Service's own negative or caption cards, and the information has not been independently verified. The glass negative is undated, so the sitter's identity and the occasion remain unknown. George Grantham Bain founded his New York news photography agency around 1899, and it supplied newspapers with pictures of people in the news, theater and society, public events, and daily city life through the early 1920s. Glass plates like this one were the standard medium of that period, and their sharp detail is one reason the collection is valued by researchers today.
