The name on this glass negative, J.J. Haspel Jr., is the main identifying detail, and the Bain News Service marked it as unverified, so the sitter's identity and role remain uncertain. George Grantham Bain ran his news photo agency in New York during the early twentieth century, supplying newspapers with pictures of public figures, performers, and everyday events. Portraits like this one were usually made as quick press photographs, and the 5 by 7 inch glass format was one of the sizes the agency used for its files.
