The record gives this glass negative the title "Poisoners Club, Worcester, Mass.," but the title came from data attached by the National Photo Company and has not been independently verified, so the name deserves some caution. The plate is dated May 9, 1913, from the company's active decades, when it photographed American towns and events for commercial clients. Worth noticing are the streaks and blemishes that the collection notes attribute to natural deterioration of the original coatings, a common sign of glass plates of this age.
