The record names this negative for Guy Pendleton and dates it September 20, 1923, though the Library of Congress notes that the name comes from unverified information the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve. Glass negatives like this one were a standard medium for commercial photographers of the early 1920s, before flexible film became common. The surface shows streaks and blemishes from the natural breakdown of its original coating, a familiar sign of age in glass plates from this period, so the image is best read as a trace of one studio's everyday work.
