The record identifies the sitter only as "Edw. C. Little, Kansas," and that title comes from unverified data written on the negative or its sleeve, so the subject's identity and role should be treated as unconfirmed. The image is a small glass negative from the National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C., firm that produced large numbers of portraits and views in the early twentieth century. The Library of Congress dates it to roughly 1918 to 1921 by comparison with other negatives in the same group. Look for streaks and blemishes in the emulsion, which the catalogers attribute to natural deterioration of the original coating.
