Description
Photograph of Howard (or Guerrero Street?) at 18th Street, showing earthquake damage in San Francisco, 1906. A horse drawn carriage sits on a cobblestone street at center with two men viewing the damage from the sidewalk just behind it. The two homes on the far right appear to be in tact, but the two on the left have rocked off their foundations and leaned onto the houses on the right.
