A pair of named sitters, Miss Mary Wallace and Dr. Chas. Bruggmann, anchors this glass negative, which the National Photo Company's notation dates to May 3, 1924. The Washington, D.C., studio worked for about three decades, photographing the city's residents, visitors and public life, and it left behind a large body of glass plates. The names come from the negative or its sleeve and have not been independently verified, so they should be read as the studio's own record. Streaks and other blemishes are visible, the result of the original coatings deteriorating over the century since the plate was made.
