The record gives this glass negative the title "Collins & Gleason," which appears to name a firm or pair of people, though the Bain News Service caption data behind that title has not been verified. The George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress comes from a New York news photo agency that operated from about 1900 into the 1920s and sold pictures of events, people, and streetscapes to newspapers. Because the record gives no date or further description, the subject and setting remain unconfirmed. Its size, 5 by 7 inches or smaller, is typical of the agency's working negatives.
