A glass negative of Prof. A.W. Waterman is held in the George Grantham Bain Collection, though its record gives no date and the name rests on unverified caption cards. George Grantham Bain founded his New York news photo service around 1899, and his staff supplied portraits of public figures alongside news events to newspapers that needed pictures quickly. Plates like this one, 5 by 7 inches or smaller, were the working format of the era and hold fine detail that later prints often lose. Researchers should treat the identification as a starting point.
