The title, "Schilback (Milton)," names a person or place, but the record does not confirm which, and the Library of Congress notes that it comes from unverified information written on the negative or its caption card. The picture is a glass negative from the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Its archive holds tens of thousands of such negatives, many of them small portraits and scenes of people and events that were in the news at the time. Without a date or caption, this one is best read as a document of that commercial news-photo trade.
