Cameron & Bursun and horseshoes are the subjects named on this glass negative, though the record calls that title unverified and notes that the original captions have rubbed away. The plate belongs to a numbered run of National Photo Company negatives, and its date of about 1921 is inferred from its neighbors in that group. The firm's Washington, D.C., work recorded city streets and everyday scenes in the early twentieth century, and glass plates like this one are fragile, so streaks from deteriorating coatings are common.
