The title Tancher is the main clue to this glass negative, and the Library of Congress notes that it comes from unverified caption data kept by the Bain News Service. The agency operated in New York in the early twentieth century, supplying newspapers with photographs of public figures, events and everyday street life, often on short deadlines. The record gives no date, so the negative is best understood as one of many thousands that passed through Bain's files, and its subject would need checking against the original caption cards to confirm.
