The title on this glass negative names the Public Lands Committee of the Senate, a panel that handled legislation on federal land, including national forests, grazing ranges, and mineral rights in the West. The National Photo Company, which worked in Washington, D.C., in the early twentieth century, documented government life during the years when those questions were actively debated. The title comes from the company's own notes and has not been independently verified, and the date of 1923 is inferred from neighboring negatives in the same range. The glass also shows streaks and other blemishes from the natural breakdown of its original coating, which affects how clearly the image reads.
