Two men, recorded as Chas. White and Jas. McGuire, are the subjects of this glass negative, and their names come from the Bain News Service's own notes rather than independent verification. The Bain agency, founded in New York around 1899, supplied news and feature pictures to newspapers and magazines, and its files capture a wide cross-section of early twentieth-century American life. Because the record gives no date or setting, the occasion and the sitters' roles remain uncertain, so anyone seeking more detail should check the Library of Congress catalog for later corrections.
