This glass negative is the only record here that names three men together: Dr. H. Plotz, A.B. Samuels and Dr. Geo. Baehr, according to a caption that the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its card, which the Library of Congress notes it has not verified. The record gives no date, so the occasion and the reason the three were photographed together remain unclear. Bain News Service was a New York picture agency founded by George Grantham Bain in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives document the people, events and public life of that period. Viewers should treat the names as the photographer's labels rather than confirmed identities.
