The name attached to this negative is Hewson Michie, though the record notes that it comes from unverified information on the negative or its caption card. Bain News Service, the New York agency that George Grantham Bain founded around 1899, supplied newspapers with news and portrait photographs, and its glass negatives were made to be reproduced quickly in print. No date is recorded, so the picture is best placed by its agency context in the early to mid twentieth century, when such press images were in steady demand.
