This glass negative pairs two named sitters, A.P. Nevin and Mrs. Olive Gabriel, though the record gives no date and notes that the title is unverified, taken from the caption cards or negative sleeves kept by the Bain News Service. Founded by George Grantham Bain in New York in the early twentieth century, the agency supplied newspapers with photographs of people and events in the news, and its glass plates were usually labeled with names and short captions. Because those labels were written quickly for editors, they can be incomplete or wrong, so researchers should treat the names as leads to check against other sources.
