This glass negative carries the caption "Frank Stanton" and the nickname "Prince of Princeton," which ties the subject to the New Jersey university town, though the record does not say who he was or when he was photographed. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. The title comes from the agency's own notes and has not been independently verified, so the identification should be read as a lead rather than a settled fact.
