Description
Photograph of horse-drawn carriages on a downtown street in Fresno, ca.1905. Two young boys are shown riding on the back of a horse-drawn cart in the foreground, which fills much of the image. Farther left, a dog can be seen walking alongside a second carriage which stands below the three-story building of the First National Bank. To the right the three-story building of the Farmer's Bank of Fresno can be seen. Other buildings, similarly Victorian in style, can be seen in the distance, lining the street.
Other legible signs from left to right read: "Established 1882", "C.H. Riege", "1889" and "Law Offices".
