The title on this glass negative, G.G. Loehler Co., names a business, and the record notes that the name was taken from information the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve, so it has not been independently verified. The negative is dated to roughly 1920 to 1921, and it belongs to a large group of plates the National Photo Company made during the early twentieth century, when it recorded everyday commercial and civic life in and around Washington, D.C. Herbert A. French gave the plate to the Library of Congress in 1947. Viewers should also look for the streaks and blemishes that the catalog attributes to natural deterioration of the original coating, which are common in glass plates of this age.
