The only identifying detail for this negative is the name E. De La Garza Jr., which the record gives as unverified caption data rather than a confirmed identity. No date is recorded, so the occasion and the circumstances of the picture remain open. The plate belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, built from the work of the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures and images of notable people to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Glass negatives of this small format were the standard working medium of that era, so the plate offers a look at the agency's everyday production.
