Labeled as a Pershing parade, this glass negative likely shows a procession honoring General John J. Pershing, who commanded the American Expeditionary Forces in France during World War I, though the title comes from unverified notes written by the National Photo Company. The company, based in Washington, D.C., produced a large body of street scenes, official ceremonies and public events from the early 1900s into the 1920s. The date is an estimate drawn from similar negatives, placing it between 1909 and 1923. Viewers should note the streaks and spots typical of aging glass plates, which come from deterioration in the original coatings rather than from the scene itself.
