The title names a trophy connected with Spain, and this glass negative, dated around 1929, dates to the year Herbert Hoover took office as the 31st president. The National Photo Company, a Washington studio that recorded official and social life in the capital during the 1910s and 1920s, made the negative. The record's details about the event are unverified, so the title is the best guide to the trophy's purpose. Look for the streaks and blemishes on the glass, which come from natural deterioration of the original coatings.
