The title lists five surnames, Lockett, Barrett, Tomkinson, Traill, and Cheape, and the record does not say who these people were or what brought them before the camera. The title comes from caption cards and data supplied by the Bain News Service, which George Grantham Bain founded in New York in the early twentieth century to sell news pictures to newspapers. Its glass negatives, often made in small formats like this one, document a busy range of people and events from the period. The record gives no date, so the names cannot be tied to a specific occasion, and the details that would confirm them have not been verified.
