The only identifying text on this glass negative is a caption reading "S. Bell. Thomas," which the Library of Congress notes is unverified and was taken from the Bain News Service's negative or caption card. No date is recorded, so the subject and occasion remain uncertain. The plate is a small-format glass negative, typical of the press photography the Bain News Service supplied to newspapers in New York from the early 1900s. Its place within the George Grantham Bain Collection still shows how commercial news pictures of that era were made, labeled, and circulated.
