Marcia Van Dresser is the name the Bain News Service gave this glass negative, though the record notes that the title comes from unverified caption data, so the identification should be treated with some caution. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress, a body of roughly 40,000 negatives made by Bain News Service, a press photo agency in New York that supplied newspapers with pictures from the early 1900s through the 1910s. Its glass plates were a standard medium for news work of that era, prized for sharp detail, and the collection is valued today as a record of American public life during those decades.
