A 1921 Nash sedan, recorded on an 8 by 6 inch glass negative, is one of the automobile views in the National Photo Company Collection. The title comes from the company's own notes, so the vehicle's identity has not been independently verified. Nash Motors, founded in 1916 by Charles W. Nash, offered closed sedans that appealed to buyers wanting weather protection, and glass plates like this one were the standard medium of commercial studios of the day. Streaks visible on the surface reflect natural deterioration of the original coatings.
