The name on this glass negative, Sawyer, Coolidge, & Boone, sets it apart, and the National Photo Company recorded it with an August 25, 1923 date. The company worked in Washington, D.C., in the early twentieth century and produced a large body of commercial and documentary views on glass plates, many of them of city streets and businesses. The title comes from information written on the negative or its sleeve that has not been verified, so the firm's identity is worth checking against other sources. Faint streaks and blemishes on the glass reflect the natural deterioration of its original coating.
