Description
Photograph of a view of a high school after the 1906 earthquake in San Jose, April, 1906. The brick walls of the school still stand, but the roof and top level have collapsed into the center. Many of the rectangular windows are broken and a pile of debris blocks the three archways of the entrance on the left. Trees can be seen next to the building on the far left.
