Few pictures in the National Photo Company collection record an official oath as directly as this one, which documents David Lynn being sworn in on August 23, 1923. The National Photo Company was a Washington, D.C., studio that photographed government officials, buildings, and public events in the early twentieth century, and its glass negatives preserve the formal ceremonies of that city. This negative shows the streaks and blemishes that often appear as the original coatings deteriorate over time.
