The only name on this negative is "Davinson," followed by a question mark, which tells us the Bain News Service caption was never confirmed. George Grantham Bain started his New York photo agency around 1899, and it supplied news pictures of people, events, and places to newspapers for decades. Its glass negatives, often shot in the early twentieth century, were filed by subject, so a single unverified name like this one can be hard to tie to a specific person, event, or date. Its real value lies in what it shows of the period, even when the identification remains open.
