The only identifying detail this negative carries is its title, "Bagby," which the Bain News Service recorded on the glass or its caption card. No date or description of the subject is recorded, and the Library of Congress notes that the title comes from unverified data, so treat the name as provisional. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by a New York agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Its glass plates capture the fast, deadline-driven work of press photography in that period.
