The only identifying detail here is the name "Geo. A. Schreiner," and the record notes that even this title comes from unverified information on the negative or its caption card, so the sitter's identity and role remain open. The image survives as a small glass negative, five by seven inches or smaller, from the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. George Grantham Bain founded his news photo agency in New York around 1899, and it supplied pictures of people and events to newspapers for about two decades, so this plate likely reflects that working press world of the early twentieth century.
