EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Finger Printing, J.S. Taylor At Bureau of Finger Print, Navy Department, 1912," captures a significant moment in the history of forensic science. The image was created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, specifically by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze. The photograph depicts a man identified as J.S. Taylor, likely an employee or officer of the Navy Department, undergoing the process of fingerprinting at the Bureau of Finger Print. The use of fingerprinting as a method of identification had gained popularity in the early 20th century, and its application in law enforcement and military contexts was becoming increasingly common. The scene is set in a modest office, with a simple wooden table and a few chairs. A glass plate negative, a common photographic medium at the time, captures the moment as Taylor places his fingers on a smooth, ink-covered surface, leaving distinct fingerprints behind. The process was repeated multiple times to ensure a clear and accurate record. The photograph is a testament to the advancements in forensic science during the 1910s and the role it played in various fields, including naval warfare and identification. It also showcases the dedication of individuals like J.S. Taylor to the process, contributing to the growing importance of fingerprinting as a means of evidence collection and analysis. This image is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 25,000 glass negatives, providing a valuable historical record of American life during the early 20th century.
