This glass negative is filed under the name Arthur N. Nehf, and its NY-N tag points to a New York National League connection, which fits Nehf's career as a left-handed pitcher for the New York Giants in the 1920s. The record gives no date, and the title comes from unverified data on the negative or caption card, so the name is best read as the agency's label. Bain News Service, the New York company behind this collection, sold pictures of sports figures and public events to newspapers, and its plates show how such images were made and circulated.
