Description
Photograph of San Francisco earthquake damage, showing the San Francisco Hotel and Annex, 1906. The tall building stands at center with burn marks on the brick walls. The right side has lost all its exterior walls revealing the bare frame. Benches line a paved path in the foreground while debris litters a field on the right. A single column stands displaying a statue of a woman in the field on the right. Damaged buildings can be seen in the background on the far right. Copyright 1906 by J.D.C.
