The name on this glass negative, "Jno. McCormick," is a caption rather than a description, so the sitter is known only by a first-name abbreviation and a surname. The date, January 27, 1923, comes from caption data supplied by the National Photo Company, a large commercial studio in Washington, D.C., that produced a vast body of glass negatives in the early twentieth century. Herbert A. French gave this plate to the Library of Congress in 1947. The surface may show streaks and blemishes from the natural breakdown of its original coatings, which are a reminder of the material's age.
