Erma Zarska is identified here only by name, and the record notes that even this title comes from caption cards and has not been verified. The picture is a glass negative of 5 by 7 inches or smaller, made for the Bain News Service, a New York agency that sold news and feature photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Bain's archive holds tens of thousands of such negatives, and many of them were printed quickly for daily publication, so the sitter's identity and the occasion are worth checking against the caption cards and related records.
