A shaving scene titled for a man named Cameron, dated February 26, 1923, makes this plate a close look at a private moment rather than a posed public portrait. The National Photo Company, which worked in Washington, D.C., in the early twentieth century, photographed city life, businesses and visitors, and its glass negatives capture the routines of that era in fine detail. Viewers should notice the streaks and blemishes across the plate, which come from the natural deterioration of the original emulsion coatings and show the physical age of the negative.
