This photograph is part of Indicommons.org's Easter Sunday celebration. Happy belated Easter!

Date is 23 March, 1913 (given as "3/23/13").

Hi Cotinis: Thank you for the information about the date. March 23, 1913 was Easter according to www.searchforancestors.com/utility/easter.html so this image relates to other 1913 Easter images in the Bain Collection.

Joseph W. Harriman, President of Harriman National Bank and Trust Co., juggled depositor's funds and attempted suicide to avoid arrest. He was convicted and sent to prison. A closer view of the clock: digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/id?482743

The clock reads "Guaranty Trust Company, Fifth Avenue Branch." The same company is identified on the window at left. The clock has IIII instead of IV for the number four. I believe this is the clock now at 522 Fifth Avenue. See


See comments with a 1916 Bain photo
for more detective work on the clock's previous location(s).
