The name on this negative, Paul Reimers, comes from caption cards and negative sleeves that the Bain News Service wrote, and the Library of Congress lists it as unverified, so the record does not confirm who the sitter was or when the picture was taken. The Bain News Service was a New York photo agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives, typically 5 by 7 inches or smaller, were made for quick reproduction in print. Collectors and researchers often value such plates for their sharp detail and for the way they preserve the working files of a commercial news operation.
