The title names only a surname, "Dolan," and the city, Indianapolis, so the sitter and occasion are unconfirmed. The Bain News Service, which George Grantham Bain founded in New York around 1899, supplied newspapers with news pictures of people and events, and its glass negatives were typically made for quick reproduction. The Library of Congress holds the Bain collection, and its catalog titles, often taken from caption cards, were not always verified, so the name and place are worth reading as leads rather than settled facts.
