The record names two men, Zundel and Nathan Rubin, and dates the negative to March 14, 1929, though the title comes from a label the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve and has not been independently verified. The company was a commercial studio in Washington, D.C., whose staff photographed city residents, events and businesses for decades, so this sitting likely reflects that everyday commercial work. The glass plate itself is a 4 by 5 inch negative, a format common in studio and press photography of the era. Viewers should note the streaks and blemishes across the image, which come from the natural breakdown of the original emulsion coating rather than from the scene.
