A glass negative dated June 6, 1923, and titled "Aladdin" at the White House, captures a moment at the executive mansion during the presidency of Warren G. Harding, who died in office that August. The title comes from data the National Photo Company recorded on the negative or its sleeve, so the subject it names has not been independently confirmed. The company was a Washington studio that documented the capital's people and events for decades, and glass plates like this one were a standard format before flexible film took over. Viewers may notice streaks and blemishes across the surface, the result of natural deterioration in the original coatings.
