The title on this glass negative, "Andre Roosevelt," comes from caption cards and data that the Bain News Service supplied, and the record does not verify it, so the sitter's identity remains uncertain. The gallery files it under Theodore Roosevelt, which fits the era of the collection. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds roughly 40,000 negatives from the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that sold news photographs to newspapers in the early 1900s. Its glass plates show politics, sports, and daily life, and they remain a major visual record of the period.
