The only identification here is the name Corp. Frank H. Raidt, a corporal's rank that points to military service, though the record gives no date or unit to confirm it. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the holdings of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with photographs of current events and notable people in the early 1900s. Because the title comes from caption cards and has not been verified, treat it as a working label. Glass negatives like this one capture fine detail and show how news pictures were made and labeled.
