The title "Beaver Dam Club" comes from information the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve, though that information has not been independently verified, so the club's identity and location remain uncertain. The glass negative dates from roughly 1910 to 1926, a period when the National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., produced large numbers of pictures of people, places, and events. The negative was a gift from Herbert A. French in 1947. Viewers should expect streaks and other blemishes, which come from the natural breakdown of the original emulsion coatings on glass plates of this age.
