The only identifying detail this glass negative carries is the name W.H. Thompson, and the record notes that even this title comes from unverified data on the negative or its caption cards. The image belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, built by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. With no date recorded, clothing, setting and other visual clues are the best guides to when the picture was made.
