The only identifying detail this glass negative offers is its title, "Rice," which the Library of Congress flags as unverified, drawn from information written on the negatives or caption cards. The image belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century and built a large archive of glass plate negatives. The record gives no date, so this frame cannot be tied to a specific event. Its format and source do place it among the agency's working files, where a brief caption often stood in for a fuller account.
