Description
Photograph of men renovating the San Fernando Mission, showing adobe bricks in the foreground, July 29, 1927. Hundreds of adobe bricks lie in neat rows in the foreground while hundreds more stand in stacks in the left foreground and the right background. Several men transport the adobe bricks with a darkly-colored truck at center. Behind them the mission building stands with most of its exterior walls and roof stripped away. A forest stands in front of hills in the right distance.
