A single glass negative dated April 4, 1924, carries the name Mrs. Elias H. Mortimer, though the title came from unverified data the National Photo Company recorded on the negative or its sleeve. The Washington, D.C., studio made large numbers of portraits and street scenes during its active years, and the Library of Congress later received its glass plates, this one as a 1947 gift from Herbert A. French. Viewers should expect streaks and blemishes, since the coatings on glass negatives of this age often deteriorated naturally over time.
