The title names Mooney, which most likely refers to Tom Mooney, the San Francisco labor organizer convicted in 1917 for the 1916 Preparedness Day bombing. His case drew national attention, and supporters across the country campaigned for his release until he was pardoned in 1939. The record gives no date, and the Bain News Service's caption information is marked as unverified, so the identification of the people and occasion should be treated as provisional. The Bain agency was a New York photo service that supplied pictures to newspapers, so the image likely shows a press-driven gathering of the kind its photographers commonly covered.
