The name on this glass negative, Sally Hamlin, comes from caption data that the Bain News Service recorded, and the Library of Congress has not verified it, so the identity of the sitter or subject remains uncertain. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that sold news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives, made in the 1900s and 1910s, capture a broad range of people and events. Glass plates like this one were the standard working medium of that era, prized for their sharp detail. Because the record gives no date, the most reliable way to place the picture is by its photographic process and the agency that produced it.
