The only identifier for this picture is the name "Gen. Velasco," and that comes from caption cards the Bain News Service wrote itself, so it has not been checked against other sources. Bain was a New York agency that sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives cover public figures, events and city scenes made for quick publication. The record gives no date, so the most reliable context is the source itself: a commercial wire-service negative whose caption is the main guide to who appears in it.
