A patrol moving through the streets gives this glass negative its subject, a view of the labor unrest in Bayonne, New Jersey, an industrial city whose refineries and factories drew large workforces in the early twentieth century. The record gives no date, and the title comes from unverified caption data written by the Bain News Service, so the specific dispute and the men shown are not confirmed. The Bain agency, based in New York, supplied news pictures to newspapers, and its negatives often record the street-level tension of strikes in that period, when police and company guards commonly patrolled picket lines.
