The record's title, "Prince Otto of Austria," carries two question marks, so the sitter's identity is unconfirmed. If the title is correct, the likely subject is Otto von Habsburg, eldest son of Emperor Karl I, who was heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne when the monarchy collapsed in 1918. The negative is a glass plate from the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news pictures to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Bain's plates were often captioned from the agency's own notes, so viewers should treat the name as a lead to verify rather than settled fact.
