The only identifying text for this glass negative is the name "C. Whitehill," a title the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card, though the record marks that information as unverified. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that George Grantham Bain founded around 1899 to supply news photographs to newspapers. Its glass negatives, many 5 by 7 inches or smaller, document a wide range of people and events from the early twentieth century. With no date recorded, the sitter and the occasion remain uncertain, so the plate is best read as one small piece of that busy commercial archive.
