Labeled as a congressman from South Carolina, this glass negative comes from the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., studio that recorded officials and public life in the 1910s. The company's plates were widely reproduced in newspapers and magazines of the day. The title comes from information the company wrote on the negative sleeve and has not been independently verified, and the date is estimated from neighboring negatives. Viewers may notice streaks and small blemishes, the result of the coating on the glass breaking down over time.
