This glass negative carries the name Artor Schmable, but the record marks that title as unverified, drawn from caption cards or notes on the negative rather than a confirmed identification. The plate measures 5 by 7 inches or smaller, a size the Bain News Service used for much of its press work. George Grantham Bain founded the service in New York around 1899 to supply news photographs to newspapers, and its glass negatives record a fast-changing city and country in the early twentieth century. Researchers should treat the name as a lead to check rather than a settled fact.
