The record gives this glass negative only the name "Eddie O'Dowd," and the Bain News Service's own notes on the negatives and caption cards are unverified, so the identity of the man pictured should be treated as tentative. The image belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, built from the work of a New York news photography service that operated in the early twentieth century and supplied pictures of people, events, and everyday life to newspapers. Glass plates like this one were the standard working medium of that period, and their sharp detail and tonal range still make them useful records of how the era looked and how news photographs were made.
