Description
Photograph of the massive old wooden doors of Mission San Gabriel which withstood the attacks of the Indians, ca.1908. The four doors, no longer hung in a frames, are propped against an adobe(?) wall in a corner inside. Some door hardware is still present on the sturdy doors. About a dozen stone cooking implements (grinding stones, etc.) sit on the wood floor in front of the doors. A metal conduit hangs down from above.
