A glass negative dated March 29, 1921, labeled as the work of D.K. Roberts in Atlanta, Georgia. The record flags that title as unverified, so the photographer's identity remains uncertain. The plate comes from the National Photo Company Collection, the holdings of a Washington, D.C. commercial firm that made views of American cities and notable places for publication in the early twentieth century. Because the image sits on glass, its surface has aged, and the record notes streaks and blemishes from the natural deterioration of the original coatings, marks that are now part of the plate's physical history.
