Miss Helen Manning's portrait is a 1923 glass negative from the National Photo Company Collection, a commercial studio that photographed a wide range of Washington, D.C. residents and public figures in the early twentieth century. The record gives May 1, 1923 as the date, though the cataloguers note that the title and date come from unverified information written on the negative or its sleeve. Glass plate negatives like this one were the standard medium for studio work of the period, offering fine detail that paper prints could not match. Visitors may notice streaks and blemishes on the surface, which the record attributes to natural deterioration of the original coatings.
