The title names someone called Riley as a coach, but the record gives no first name, team, or date, and the caption information is unverified. The negative is a glass plate, the format news photographers relied on in the early twentieth century, before flexible film became standard. It comes from the Bain News Service, the New York photo agency founded by George Grantham Bain, whose files capture the people and events of that era, and the picture is worth viewing with that background in mind.
