The name on this glass negative, Wm. J. Sinek, is the most specific clue to its subject, and the caption places the sitting on February 14, 1923. The caption data came from the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., firm whose plates make up this collection, though the details have not been independently verified. Commercial studios of that era produced many portraits, so this plate offers a glimpse of everyday photographic work in the early 1920s. Look for the streaks and blemishes across the surface, which result from natural deterioration of the original coatings on the glass.
