The title links this negative to a man named Sam'l Hart and to Lansbury Bros., though that wording comes from unverified data on the negative or its sleeve. It belongs to the National Photo Company Collection, whose glass plates document Washington, D.C., and its people in the early twentieth century. The date is estimated from neighboring negatives, and the visible streaks and blemishes reflect the natural breakdown of the original coatings over time.
