The only identifying detail for this picture is its title, Young, which the Bain News Service recorded on the negative or its caption card. The library notes that this title is unverified, and the record gives no date. The picture is a single glass negative, no larger than 5 by 7 inches, of the kind the Bain agency produced in large numbers for newspapers from the early 1900s into the 1920s. Those pictures were made for quick reproduction, so their subjects were usually news events, people in the news, or scenes of city life. Without a caption or date, the exact subject is hard to pin down, but the plate itself reflects how a busy news photo service worked in that period.
