This glass negative records Taft at City College, with a Professor Schuyler named in the title. The record describes that title as unverified, taken from caption information the Bain News Service wrote on the negatives or caption cards, so the exact occasion and date are uncertain. The Bain agency supplied newspapers with photographs of public figures and local events in New York in the early twentieth century, and a college appearance by a prominent national figure was the kind of assignment its photographers covered. Its glass plates also show the large-format method that news photographers of that era still relied on.
