The title on this glass negative names a sitter, Miss Madeline Bl..., alongside a second name, Paula Dermont, but the caption has rubbed away, so the full wording is incomplete and unverified. The date of 1923 is inferred from other negatives in the same range. The negative belongs to the National Photo Company Collection, from a Washington, D.C., studio that produced many portraits and news pictures in the 1910s and 1920s. Glass negatives like this one can show streaks and blemishes from the natural breakdown of their original coatings, which is worth keeping in mind when viewing the image.
