The record for this glass negative gives only the name John Yec, and the title comes from data the Bain News Service wrote on the negative or its caption card, which the Library of Congress notes has not been independently verified. No date or description of the scene survives in the entry, so the name is best treated as a starting point for research. Bain News Service was a New York photo agency that supplied newspapers and magazines with pictures in the early twentieth century, when glass plates were the standard working medium for news photography. Researchers who want more context can compare the caption cards and neighboring negatives in the collection.
