A title on the negative sleeve names this as a "Winning Cadet Co." from 1915, though the Library notes that the label comes from unverified data supplied by the National Photo Company. The image survives as a glass negative, a medium photographers relied on in the early twentieth century for its sharp detail. The National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., documented public life, including military and civic events, for much of the early 1900s. The record also warns of streaks and blemishes caused by the natural breakdown of the original coatings, so some marks on the plate may reflect age rather than the scene itself.
