The record names F. Britten Austin as the subject, but the title comes from unverified information on the negative or its caption card, and no date is given. The Bain News Service, the New York photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain, produced pictures like this one for newspapers and magazines in the early twentieth century, when many images were still made on glass plates before film became standard. Because the identification is unconfirmed, the sitter and the occasion behind the picture should be checked against other sources before they are relied on.
