The record names this picture only as "S.F. Streit," a set of initials and a surname, and the title itself is flagged as unverified. It is a single glass negative, no larger than 5 by 7 inches, from the George Grantham Bain Collection. Bain News Service, the New York agency Bain ran in the early twentieth century, sold news pictures and portraits to newspapers and magazines, and its caption cards were often incomplete or inconsistent. Because the date and subject are not recorded, the sitter's identity and the occasion are best checked against the Library of Congress catalog before relying on them.
