The only identifying detail in this record is the name Moran, and the Library of Congress notes that even this comes from unverified caption information supplied by the Bain News Service. George Grantham Bain founded his news photography agency in New York in 1899, and its glass negatives, like this one, record portraits, street scenes, and events from the early twentieth century. With no date or subject given, the picture is best understood as one piece of a large commercial archive that documented the everyday news of its era.
