The record identifies this glass negative only as "Earl of Derby," a title of the British peerage, and the Bain News Service's own notes on the title are marked unverified, so the sitter and occasion cannot be confirmed from the record alone. The Bain News Service was a New York photo agency that supplied pictures of public figures, news events and everyday scenes to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives were often captioned quickly for rapid publication. Viewers should treat the title as a starting point for research, and the negative's format and the collection's period help place it within that busy newsgathering trade.
