The title on this glass negative names a man, James W. Collier, followed by the abbreviation "Miss." Those details came from the National Photo Company's notes on the negative or its sleeve and have not been independently verified, so the abbreviation's meaning remains uncertain. The negative is dated to roughly 1921 to 1922, when the National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., was producing a large body of portraits and street scenes, many now held by the Library of Congress. The surface shows streaks and blemishes from the natural deterioration of the original coating, a common condition in glass plates of this age that is worth keeping in mind when studying the image.
