Judge Crane and the chief clerk stand together on a city sidewalk rather than inside a courtroom, a setting that sets this view apart from most images of the Hains trial. The record ties the picture to the Hains case, the 1908 murder prosecution that drew heavy newspaper attention in New York. The Bain News Service, a photo agency that supplied pictures to newspapers, made the glass negative. Its caption data is marked as unverified, so the date and the clerk's identity are worth checking against contemporary press accounts.
