The record names this negative for Julius Kahn, a San Francisco lawyer who represented California in the U.S. House of Representatives for much of the early twentieth century and was active on military affairs during the First World War. The National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., studio that photographed many officials and public figures, is the source, and the negative is dated between 1918 and 1921. The title comes from unverified data on the negative sleeve, so the identification is worth checking against other sources. The streaks and blemishes visible on the glass reflect deterioration in the original coating.
