The record names M.A. Romjue of Missouri, which suggests a portrait of a person or a view tied to that name, though the title comes from unverified caption data and the date is not recorded. The negative is a small glass plate, the format Bain News Service used for much of its work. Bain was a New York news photo agency that supplied pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, so the image reflects the fast, commercial news photography of that period. Because the identification and date are uncertain, the sitter or subject is best read as a starting point for further research rather than a settled fact.
