The title pairs two New York Republicans, Alanson B. Houghton and James W. Wadsworth, in a glass negative dated February 15, 1922, made by the National Photo Company in Washington, D.C. The studio photographed officials, visitors and events in the capital for decades, so this sitting likely reflects that routine work. The names come from unverified data written on the negative or its sleeve, so treat them as a lead rather than settled fact. Glass negatives also deteriorate over time, and the streaks and blemishes visible here come from that natural breakdown of the original coating.
