This glass negative bears the name Arthur M. Harris, a title the Bain News Service recorded on its caption cards, though the Library of Congress notes that the identification has not been verified. The Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers with news and portrait photographs in the early twentieth century, and its glass plates were often made quickly for same-day publication. Because the record gives no date, the image is best read as a document of that commercial news trade, with the sitter's identity still open to confirmation.
