EDITORS COMMENTS
Between c1910 and c1915, photographer George Grantham Bain of the renowned Bain News Service captured a striking portrait of American wrestler Walter Miller. This black-and-white print showcases Miller's impressive physique as he stands flexed, his arms outstretched to reveal bulging biceps. The image exudes confidence and power, reflecting Miller's reputation as one of America's top wrestlers during this era.
Bain News Service was a pioneering press photography agency that thrived in the early 20th century. Founded by George Grantham Bain, it became synonymous with capturing iconic images of American life, politics, sports, and culture. This photograph is a testament to their commitment to documenting everyday heroes like Walter Miller, who embodied strength and athleticism.
The Library of Congress holds this remarkable print as part of its Heritage Images collection.
