The title *Oasis*, paired with Charlotte, North Carolina, and the date June 5, 1923, is the only identifying information for this plate, and it comes from notes the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve without independent confirmation. The company, based in Washington, D.C., produced a large body of city views and street scenes across the United States in the early twentieth century, so the plate offers a glimpse of Charlotte at that time. The visible streaks and blemishes are the result of natural deterioration in the original coatings, a common condition for glass negatives of this age.
