The record gives only the name Sam Robideau, and it notes that the title comes from caption information the Bain News Service wrote on the negatives or their cards, which has not been verified. No date or further detail identifies who Robideau was or what the picture shows, so the sitter's story remains open. The Bain News Service, founded in New York by George Grantham Bain around 1901, sold news photographs to newspapers, and its glass negatives, many measuring 5 by 7 inches or less, document the working press of the early twentieth century. Researchers should treat the name as a lead to check against other sources, not as a confirmed identification.
