Description
Photograph of a view of San Luis Obispo, showing a field in the foreground, ca.1900. In the foreground, a large swath of flat ground is pictured, containing what appear to be three billboards or sections of fence. Farther in, several railroad cars are visible just in front of a Bungalow-style residence. Beyond this, the rest of the city extends to two mountain peaks in the background.
