A dated glass negative, labeled as Miss Dorothy Fell and marked April 21, 1927, gives this portrait a specific moment in time. The National Photo Company, a commercial studio active in Washington, D.C. in the early twentieth century, made large numbers of such negatives of local people and events, and its collection now sits at the Library of Congress. The name comes from data written on the negative or its sleeve and has not been independently verified. Visible streaks and blemishes come from the gradual breakdown of the original emulsion, which is typical of glass plates from this era.
