This glass negative is a portrait of a man identified in its title as Chas. R. Davis of Minnesota, with a date of March 1, 1924. The title came from notes the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve, and the Library of Congress has not verified it, so the name and home state are the company's records rather than confirmed facts. The company was a Washington, D.C., studio that photographed a steady stream of visitors and local subjects in the 1900s through the 1930s, and its glass plates now form a large part of the Library's collection. Because the negative is on glass, it may show streaks and blemishes from the gradual breakdown of its original coating.
