Two men, Alfred J. Pearson and J. Butler Wright, sit for this portrait dated April 25, 1924, and their names come from the sleeve that held the negative rather than from a verified source, so the record does not explain who they were or why they were photographed. The image belongs to the National Photo Company Collection, the Washington, D.C., studio that made large numbers of news, portrait, and street pictures in the early twentieth century. Glass negatives like this one were prized for their sharp detail, though age has left streaks and blemishes where the original coating has broken down.
