This negative is catalogued under the name Jess Westergaard, a title the record describes as unverified and taken from the caption card or negative sleeve, so the sitter and the occasion remain open. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of glass negatives made by the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Because the agency worked quickly for daily publication, its identifications are often incomplete or wrong, and researchers usually check them against dates and related prints.
