The only identifying detail for this glass negative is its title, "Ganz," which the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card. The library notes that this information is unverified, so the subject is best understood through the collection it belongs to. George Grantham Bain founded the Bain News Service in New York in 1899, and it supplied newspapers with photographs of news events, public figures and everyday scenes during the early decades of the twentieth century. Its glass negatives, made for fast commercial use, are now valued as a broad record of that period.
