Description
"Kelly San Jose" written at the bottom of the print. A young man in a flat-bed truck is looking at the camera, stopped in street with blocks behind the wheels of the truck. The truck is towing a two-story house behind it. Several men are standing in front of the house; others look on from the side of the road. A wood shingled church can be seen on the right side of the image; a coffee and tea supplier is in a brick building on the left side. This is likely an early photo of the Kelly Brothers House Movers, possibly Howard Kelly behind the wheel of the truck.
