The names T.F. Shuey and Fred Ireland, along with the date, December 9, 1921, are the most specific details the record gives, and they come from data written on the negative or its sleeve rather than from independent verification. The glass plate belongs to the National Photo Company Collection, whose photographers worked largely in Washington, D.C., during the early twentieth century. Glass negatives of this age often show streaks and blemishes where the original coating has deteriorated, so some marks on the image reflect the condition of the plate rather than the scene itself.
