Sir George Reid, the Scottish-born former Prime Minister of Australia, appears here alongside a Mrs. Oliver T. Johnston, though the caption is unverified and the record gives no date. Reid led Australia's government in 1904 and 1905 and later served as the country's High Commissioner in London, a post that placed him at the center of imperial affairs before the First World War. The Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with pictures of public figures, produced negatives like this one for quick publication.
