The sitter is Herbert J. Schwartz, and his name is the only personal detail the record offers. The caption card data is unverified, so little else about him can be stated with confidence. The print dates to about 1948, a period when portrait photoprints were routinely made for sitters, publications and the photographers who produced them. Its credit line names George S. Heilpern as the copyright holder, and the record notes that the copyright was never renewed, a small reminder of how mid-century images were registered and later handled.
