This negative is catalogued under the name Josef Mann, though the record gives no date and no description of the scene, so the identification rests on a caption title that the Bain News Service may have written from unverified information. The Bain agency ran a large New York operation from the late 1890s into the early 1930s, selling news and feature photographs to newspapers, and its glass negatives record the faces and events of that period. Because the plate is small, at 5 by 7 inches or less, it was likely made for quick reproduction in print. Researchers looking at it should treat the name as a starting point and check the collection's related records for more detail.
