The title "Nyiregykazi" is unverified, and the record gives no date or photographer. It resembles the Hungarian town name Nyíregyháza, but the record does not confirm that, so it may refer to a place, a person, or something else. The picture is one of the single glass negatives from the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of news photographs that the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency founded in 1899, distributed to newspapers and magazines. Glass plates like this one were the standard medium for press work in the early twentieth century, and the Bain files are valued for documenting everyday life and current events of that era.
