Gorgorza is the only identifying detail in the record for this glass negative, and the Bain News Service's title is noted as unverified, so the subject itself remains uncertain. The Bain News Service was a commercial photo agency in New York that sold news pictures to newspapers from the early 1900s through the 1920s. Small glass negatives like this one were a standard tool of press photographers of the period, prized for their fine detail. Treat the title as a lead to check rather than a settled identification.
