This glass negative is catalogued under the name Lucy Burleson, a title taken from caption cards and data supplied by the Bain News Service, and the record notes that the identification has not been verified. The picture has no firm date, so its exact circumstances are unknown. George Grantham Bain founded the Bain News Service in New York around 1899 as a photo agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with pictures of news events, notable people and everyday scenes. Its glass negatives, now held by the Library of Congress, give a broad view of American life in the early twentieth century, and many of them lack full identifying details like this one.
