The sitter is August T. Seymour, a name the National Photo Company wrote on the negative sleeve, though the record marks that identification as unverified. The date of November 10, 1922 comes from a related negative in the collection, so treat it as a working anchor rather than a settled fact. The National Photo Company worked in Washington, D.C., and its glass plates document much of the city's portrait and event photography in the early twentieth century. Worth noticing are the streaks and small blemishes on the glass, which come from the natural deterioration of the original emulsion coatings.
