This image is a modification of the illustration used for "San Francisco in 1861" (according to Baird). The houses at the lower left and right replace the foliage and fence of the earlier state. St. Francis Church on Vallejo Street, Grace Church, the correct spires of St. Mary's, and several other additions have been made to the view of the city. The harbor can be seen in the distance. Baird also notes that this variant is the same illustration as the one in "View of San Francisco, in 1869," just with the date changed. Paper color: blue.
