This glass negative is a 1924 portrait labeled as Francis J. Henry and dated April 9, 1924, though the record notes that the name comes from unverified data written by the National Photo Company, so his identity is not confirmed. The National Photo Company, a Washington, D.C. firm active in the early twentieth century, produced a large body of images that now form part of the Library of Congress collection, which was given to the library in 1947. The record also warns that streaks and other blemishes from the aging of the original coating may appear on the glass, so some marks you see are the result of decay rather than the photographer's work.
