Eleanor Woodruff is the name given to this glass negative, though the record notes that the title comes from unverified data supplied by the Bain News Service on the negatives or caption cards. The Bain News Service was a New York photo agency that sold pictures of people and events to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass plates were shot for quick newspaper use. Without a date or further details, the sitter's identity and the occasion remain uncertain. Viewers can still see the working methods of a busy press photographer from that era, when glass plates were the standard medium.
