The record gives a single word, "Price," taken from caption cards or the negative and not verified, so the subject itself is uncertain. The negative belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures of people, places and events to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Glass plates of this size were the standard working medium of that era, and they show how press photographs were made before roll film became common. Viewers should treat the title as a starting point rather than a confirmed identification.
