Two men, Fred W. Upshaw and Wm. Wrigley, are named in this portrait's title, which was supplied by the National Photo Company and has not been independently verified. The picture was made on October 23, 1923, on a glass negative that is part of the company's collection, now held by the Library of Congress. The National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., made thousands of such glass plates from the early 1900s into the 1930s, recording local officials, events, and street life. Viewers should look for the streaks and blemishes that the record attributes to the natural deterioration of the original coatings, which show the plate's age as much as its subject.
