Four names are listed for this glass negative: M.M. Van Buren, Archbold Van Buren (spelled "Van Burren" in the record), Mrs. C.J. Post, and Mrs. J.H. Flagg. The record does not give a date or the occasion, and the titles come from caption cards that the Bain News Service attached to its negatives, so the identifications have not been independently verified. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency founded by George Grantham Bain around 1899, and it supplied newspapers with photographs of people and events in the early twentieth century. Its glass negatives, many of them stored in small formats like this 5 x 7 inch plate, now form the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress.
