This glass negative is set apart by its caption, which names a Commander Wells and a person listed as Baldinsperger, though the title is partly garbled and the word "Ettari" cannot be confirmed. It belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with news photographs in the early twentieth century. Small glass plates like this one were standard for the agency's fast news work. The date is not recorded, so the occasion remains uncertain and should be checked against the catalog before it is cited.
