Description
Photograph of San Francisco, showing Market Street, ca.1920. Tall buildings, one which says "Golden Gate" across its dome roof, line the left side of the street as it extends from center foreground to right distance. Several trolley cars ride down the center while automobiles drive on the sides and sit parked against the sidewalks. Hundreds of people walk up and down the sidewalks where American flags hang from lampposts.
