The title names three surnames, Jones, Scott and Bush, and a New York setting, but the Library of Congress flags these as unverified caption details, so the people shown remain unidentified. The image survives as a glass negative, a format news photographers favored in the early 1900s for its sharp detail. It comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, the work of a New York news agency founded around 1899 that sold pictures to newspapers. With no date recorded, the exact moment is uncertain, but the agency's output mostly spans the years before the First World War into the 1920s.
