The only identifying detail for this negative is its title, "Ney," which the Bain News Service recorded on the glass or its caption card. The Library of Congress notes that the name has not been verified, so the subject remains open. George Grantham Bain's agency supplied news photographs to newspapers in New York and beyond in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives, measuring 5 by 7 inches or smaller, cover politics, sports, theater, and street scenes. Without a confirmed date or sitter, this plate is best understood as one entry in that large working archive.
