The title on this glass negative, J. Stehlin, comes from unverified data written on the negative or its caption card, so the identity of the person or subject is uncertain. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sent photographers to cover news, portraits and events in the early twentieth century and sold the pictures to newspapers. Glass plates like this one were the standard working medium of that era, and the small format reflects the portable cameras photographers carried on assignment.
