Gifford Pinchot, the Pennsylvania forester who served as chief of the U.S. Forest Service under Theodore Roosevelt, is the subject of this glass negative, made in March 1924 by the National Photo Company. The studio was a Washington, D.C., firm known for its large holdings of portraits and news pictures of public figures, and Pinchot was a prominent conservation voice of that era, later serving two terms as governor of Pennsylvania. The record dates the negative from a related frame, and the title comes from a handwritten notation on the sleeve, so the identification is worth confirming. Viewers should also note the streaks and blemishes that come from the natural breakdown of the original coating on the glass.
