The title points to a delegation from Hawaii photographed on May 21, 1921, though the date comes from notes written on the negative or its sleeve and has not been independently verified. In 1921 Hawaii was an organized U.S. territory, and its representatives regularly traveled to Washington to press local concerns before Congress and federal agencies. The National Photo Company, a Washington studio that worked in the capital during these decades, produced portraits and news views of visiting groups like this one. Viewers may notice streaks and blotches on the glass, which the record attributes to natural deterioration of the original coating.
