The name on this negative is J.E. Roosevelt, a label the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card. The record says that title is unverified, so the sitter may not be Theodore Roosevelt, the figure this board is organized around. George Grantham Bain ran a New York news photo service that supplied pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and his glass negatives, many 5 by 7 inches or smaller, reflect the quick, practical work of press photography in that period. Treat the identification as a lead for further research rather than a settled fact.
