Photograph of horse-drawn carriages on a downtown street in Fresno, ca.1905. Two young boys are shown riding on the back of a horse-drawn cart in the foreground, which fills much of the image. Farther left, a dog can be seen walking alongside a second carriage which stands below the three-story building of the First National Bank. To the right the three-story building of the Farmer's Bank of Fresno can be seen. Other buildings, similarly Victorian in style, can be seen in the distance, lining the street.; Other legible signs from left to right read: "Established 1882", "C.H. Riege", "1889" and "Law Offices".
