Martin W. Littleton, a Brooklyn trial lawyer and former New York congressman, sits on the witness stand in this March 1924 view, a setting that suggests a courtroom or hearing room. Littleton was a well-known Democrat and attorney, and high-profile testimony of that era drew wide newspaper attention. The picture comes from the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., studio whose news photographs recorded political and public life in the early twentieth century. As a glass negative, it shows the streaks and blemishes of age in its original coatings, which are part of its character today.
