The record gives this wedding the title Mintaugh, but that name comes from unverified notes the National Photo Company wrote on its negatives or sleeves, so it is best read as a working label. The date of about 1921 is inferred from neighboring negatives in the same range, and Herbert A. French gave the plate to the Library of Congress in 1947. Glass negatives like this one were a standard medium for commercial studios of the period, and the faint streaks and blemishes visible on the surface are typical of coatings that have deteriorated over time.
