The only identifying detail for this glass negative is the name "Yussif Hussane," which the Library of Congress lists as unverified and taken from the Bain News Service negative or its caption card. Bain's agency supplied news pictures to newspapers, and its captions were often written in haste, so names were sometimes misspelled or later hard to confirm. The record gives no date or location, so the subject and setting cannot be pinned down from the catalog alone. Glass negatives of this size were the working medium of press photographers in the early twentieth century, and the collection as a whole offers a broad view of American news and public life from that era.
