Description
Photograph of a view of the Beale Clock Tower in Bakersfield, ca.1900. The tall rectangular tower is at center. The base of the brick building is covered in ivy, while the roof is made of terracotta tiles. Four small balconies can be seen near arched openings in the middle of the tower. Two clock faces can be seen high on the tower, both showing the time to be about five minutes to nine. The tower is located in the middle of a dirt street. The two-story Stoner Block building is visible in the background at right, while a tall building with a domed roof is visible at left. The law office of Geo. Whitaker can be seen in the Stoner building
