The record gives only a name, "Virginia Young," and that name comes from unverified captions written by the Bain News Service, so it is unclear whether it identifies a sitter, a subject or someone else entirely. The picture is a glass negative of 5 x 7 inches or smaller, part of the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Bain's agency, based in New York, sent photographs to newspapers from the early 1900s into the 1920s, so the plate likely belongs to that busy news-photo trade. Its undated record leaves the exact year open.
