This glass negative is labeled "B. Mammarnos" with the date July 7, 1924, a name and day that set it apart from the company's many views of landmarks and streets. The label was supplied by the National Photo Company itself and has not been independently verified, so the identity of the subject and the circumstances of the sitting remain unconfirmed. The National Photo Company worked in Washington, D.C., during the 1920s, recording city life, government buildings, and visitors, and its glass plates now show the period's dress and photographic methods. Viewers should also notice the streaks and blemishes on the surface, which come from the natural breakdown of the original emulsion coating.
