This glass negative is catalogued under the name David Kirkwood, though the record notes that the title comes from unverified caption data, so the identification and the subject's role remain uncertain. No date is recorded. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Its glass plates were usually labeled with caption cards written at the time, and those labels were not always checked, so researchers often treat the names as leads to confirm against other sources.
