Dated April 11, 1923, and titled with the names Weeks & Hughes, this glass negative comes from the National Photo Company, which documented Washington, D.C., and its people in the early twentieth century. The title was taken from data the company wrote on the negative or its sleeve and is unverified, so the names may refer to a business, two people, or a place. Glass plates like this were the standard working medium of the period, and they are fragile. The original coatings may show streaks and blemishes from natural deterioration, which is worth keeping in mind when viewing the image.
