Two names, Jas. Bowron and J.A. Farrell, are attached to this glass negative, but the record gives no date and notes that the titles came unverified from Bain News Service captions, so treat the pairing as a lead. J.A. Farrell may be James A. Farrell, who led the United States Steel Corporation in the 1910s and 1920s, a period when business leaders were common subjects for press photographers. The Bain News Service, a New York agency, supplied newspapers with pictures from the early 1900s into the 1920s, and its glass negatives remain a major record of that era's public figures and events.
