The title describes this glass negative as an English woman worker, but the caption came from the Bain News Service and has not been independently verified. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its negatives now form the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Photographs of working women in Britain from that period often reflected wartime and industrial labor, a subject that drew steady press attention, though this record gives no date or location to place this particular image.
