Photograph of an exterior view of Rancho Estrella adobe, San Luis Obispo County, 1938. At right, a man and a woman can be seen near the porch of the one-story ranch-style adobe, whose door is visible just to the left of center. In the foreground, foliage from nearby trees frames the image and partially obscures the roof of the adobe. An earlier version of the record reads "from restored five room adobe".
