The caption gives only a personal name, Jos. Hillstrom, with no place, event, or date, so the sitter's identity and the occasion behind the plate are not recorded. Bain News Service, the New York agency founded by George Grantham Bain, produced many such glass negatives in the early twentieth century to supply newspapers with portraits and news pictures. Because the title comes from unverified data on the negative or its caption card, researchers should treat the name as a starting point and check it against other sources before relying on it.
