A portrait of a man the record names as Benj. Loring Young survives as a glass negative, though the name comes from unverified data noted on the negative or its caption card. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency founded by George Grantham Bain that supplied newspapers with pictures of current events and public figures in the early twentieth century. The record gives no date, so the sitter's identity and the year of exposure remain open, and researchers may want to confirm the name against other sources before relying on it.
