The title "Joe Bush, New York, 1924" comes from data the National Photo Company recorded on the negative or its sleeve, and that information has not been verified, so the sitter's identity remains uncertain. The National Photo Company was a Washington, D.C., commercial studio that made large numbers of portraits and views in the early twentieth century. Its glass negatives reached the Library of Congress as a gift from Herbert A. French in 1947. The surface shows streaks and other blemishes from the natural deterioration of the original coatings, which is part of what the plate looks like today.
