The name on this glass negative, "Chas. H. Haskins," is the most specific clue, though the record flags it as unverified caption data written by the Bain News Service. The agency sold news and portrait photographs to newspapers in the early 1900s, so its plates often show people in the news of the day. With no date recorded, the 5 x 7 inch or smaller format is the best guide to its age, a size common in press work of that period. Treat the name as the agency's label rather than a confirmed identification.
