The only identifying detail recorded for this glass negative is the title "Remy Glider," taken from unverified notes the Bain News Service wrote on its negatives or caption cards, so the subject should be read with some caution. Bain was a New York photo agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass plates captured everyday events, public figures and city life of that era. Glass negatives like this one are prized for their sharp detail and for showing how working photographers recorded the period before flexible film became the norm. The record does not give a date for this image.
