The record identifies this glass negative only as "F.P. Graves," a name the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card, and the library has not verified it, so the sitter's identity remains uncertain. The picture comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, which holds the work of a New York press photography agency founded in the early 1900s to supply news pictures to newspapers. Its small glass negatives, typically 5 by 7 inches or smaller, were the standard working format of that period. Viewers should read the name as a starting point for research rather than a confirmed identification.
