A glass negative from the Bain News Service shows a building its caption identifies as the home of a bomb maker on Third Avenue. The record gives no date, and the title is unverified, so the story behind the picture can't be confirmed from the catalog alone. George Grantham Bain's agency, based in New York, sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, when explosives and anarchist attacks drew heavy press coverage. Glass plates like this one were the standard medium for news work of that era.
