A Ku Klux Klan parade in Washington, D.C., dated August 8, 1925, is the subject of this glass negative, made by the National Photo Company, a studio that documented the city's streets and public life. The Klan's membership was at its national height in 1925, and its large public marches drew crowds and press attention in the capital that year. The glass shows streaks and blemishes from the deterioration of its original coating, which affects how sharply some details of the crowd and street come through.
