Description
Photograph of people standing in a bread line on Heights Street, San Francisco, 1906. A dirt road lies in the foreground with a line of shops on along the side of the street at center. People crowd the sidewalk in a line in front of a large sign that reads "It's Paul Jones". This bread line apparently begins behind a horse-drawn carriage on the far right and continues into the distance down the street on the left.
