This glass negative is catalogued under the name R.V. Pesqueira, a title the Library of Congress notes was taken from caption cards and data supplied by the Bain News Service and has not been independently verified. The image is one of the single-plate glass negatives from the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of work built by the New York news photography agency that sent pictures of politicians, performers, athletes, and public events to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Glass plates of this size were the standard working medium for press photographers of that era, so the negative itself tells you as much about how news pictures were made and handled as about its subject. Viewers interested in the person named should check the Bain caption records and related catalog entries, where identifications are often refined over time.
