The record identifies this glass negative only by the name "W.H. Tolman," taken from caption information that the Bain News Service supplied and that has not been independently verified. No date or place is recorded, so the subject's role and the occasion are unknown. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that George Grantham Bain founded around 1899, and it supplied news and portrait photographs to newspapers and magazines for roughly three decades. Its glass negatives, now in the Library of Congress, document many of the people and events of the early twentieth century, and they often survive with only minimal caption data like this.
