Photograph of an exterior view of the remains of the Price Adobe School in Price Canyon, ca.1900. The two-story adobe building, between Pismo and Edna, is pictured at center, its spackle crumbling from much of the adobe bricks. To the right, a small water-basin is visible, while a squat annex can be seen at left. Scrub vegetation fills the foreground. Price was an owner of the north half of Pismo Grant (?, please confirm) . This was first school building in that section.
