The surname McKinlock, linked to Harvard in the title, is the most specific detail here, though the record does not say who he was or what brought him to the university. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by a New York news photo service that supplied pictures of people and events to newspapers from the early 1900s through the 1920s. The title comes from caption cards and negative labels that the Library of Congress describes as unverified, so the subject and date should be read with caution. Glass negatives of this small size were a common format for newsroom photography of the period.
