This glass negative shows Colin Bell at golf, a subject named in a title that the Bain News Service attached to the negative or its caption card, though the record notes that the identification is unverified. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds news photographs made in New York and elsewhere in the early twentieth century, when golf was growing rapidly as a popular pastime and sport in the United States. Bain's staff photographed sportsmen, public figures, and everyday events for newspaper use, so pictures like this one record how the game was played and reported during that era.
