Pemberton school, dated March 19, 1923, is the subject here, though the record does not say where the building stood. The negative comes from the National Photo Company, a commercial studio that recorded streets, buildings and events in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere in the early twentieth century. Glass plates like this one were the working standard of the period, and the coating has aged unevenly, leaving streaks and blemishes that can show up in prints made from it. The title and date come from caption data that has not been independently verified, so researchers should check them against local records.
