The record identifies this negative only by its catalog number, 44836, so its subject is not named here. The date, October 2, 1922, comes from notes the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve and has not been independently verified. The company, based in Washington, D.C., produced a large body of street, building, and event photographs in the early twentieth century, and this 5-by-7-inch glass plate reached the Library of Congress as a gift from Herbert A. French in 1947. The streaks and blemishes visible on its surface likely come from the coating deteriorating over time, a common condition in glass negatives of this age.
