The title on this glass negative is Hilliard Lang, a name the Bain News Service recorded on the plate or its caption card. The record describes that information as unverified, so it is best treated as a working label rather than a confirmed identity. George Grantham Bain founded his news photo agency in New York around 1900, and its staff produced portraits and event pictures that newspapers could print within a short time. Glass plates of this size were the common working medium for press photographers of the period, and the collection as a whole shows how news pictures were made and labeled in the early twentieth century.
