This negative is unusual in the Bain collection because its title names two men, Dunne and Mundelein, rather than a place or event. The title likely refers to Edward Dunne, Illinois governor from 1913 to 1917, and George Mundelein, who became archbishop of Chicago in 1915. The record gives no date, and the title is unverified, so treat the pairing and the occasion as a lead rather than a settled fact. Bain News Service, a New York photo agency, produced and distributed images like this one from the early 1900s into the 1920s, often for newspapers that needed pictures of public figures on short notice.
