This negative is catalogued under the name Thos. McCarthy, a title taken from caption cards and notes the Bain News Service attached to its glass plates, so the identification has not been independently verified. George Grantham Bain built his news photo agency in New York in the early 1900s, supplying newspapers with pictures of people, events and street scenes for about two decades. Glass negatives like this one were the standard working medium of press photographers of the period, and their sharp detail is one reason the collection remains valuable to researchers today.
