Rather than a single subject, this glass negative is labeled with seven women's names: C. Nichols, Edith Sloan, Margaret Luce, Margaret Overton, Kath. Lamont, Julia Edey, and Rita Boker. The Library of Congress notes that the title comes from unverified caption data supplied by the Bain News Service. The Bain agency, founded by George Grantham Bain in New York around 1899, sold news pictures to newspapers, and its files hold tens of thousands of small glass plates. Without a date or confirmed caption, the occasion behind this group cannot be established, but the list of names shows how the agency identified the people it photographed.
