Labeled as Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, this glass negative comes from the National Photo Company, a Washington studio active in the early twentieth century. The title is unverified and the 1924 date is inferred from neighboring negatives, so treat the identification with some caution. In that period Eleanor Roosevelt was becoming involved in Democratic politics while her husband recovered from polio. Streaks and blemishes on the surface reflect natural deterioration of the original coating.
