Description
Photograph of San Luis Obispo after a major fire, showing the Loobliner building still standing at right, ca.1890. Remains of collapsed buildings and debris litter the ground in the foreground. People are gathered near the two-story building beyond the rubble. The partially collapsed building shows signs of fire damage. Other buildings, including the Loobliner building to the right, appear to be unharmed. Mountains and trees are visible in the background.
