The record gives only a name, Marcel Charlier, taken from caption cards written by the Bain News Service, so the identification has not been independently confirmed. George Grantham Bain founded that agency in New York, and from around 1899 into the early 1930s it supplied news photographs of people and events to newspapers across the country. Its glass plates were usually small enough to print quickly on deadline, and the collection holding this one is now a major source for the period. Viewers should treat the name as a starting point and check it against other sources before relying on it.
