Amra Grotto of Knoxville, Tennessee, is named in the title of this June 22, 1925 glass negative, which places a local chapter of a men's fraternal society at a specific moment. The National Photo Company made the plate, and the date comes from a related negative in the same series. Glass negatives of this era were coated by hand, and the emulsion can deteriorate, so streaks and blemishes may appear across the surface. The date and place give researchers a firm starting point for tracing the group's Knoxville activities that year.
