Martha Hagstadt, Elsie Sutan and Edna Cole are the three women named in this glass negative, though the record gives no date, place or occasion, and the names come from caption cards that the library has not verified. The image belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with news and feature photographs in the early twentieth century. Its glass negatives capture the look of that period's pictorial reporting, when portraits of ordinary people and public figures alike were printed in daily papers. Because the identifications are uncertain, the names are best treated as leads for further research.
