The title on this glass negative reads "Falk, Chicago, 1924," though the National Photo Company supplied that information on the negative or its sleeve, and it has not been independently verified. Parts of the original caption have rubbed away, so the exact subject is harder to pin down than the date. The National Photo Company was a Washington, D.C., commercial firm whose negatives reached the Library of Congress in 1947 as a gift from Herbert A. French. Look closely at the surface and you may see streaks and blemishes, which come from the original coating deteriorating over time.
