Photograph of the exterior of the entrance to the home of Jose de Jesus Vallejo, brother of General Mariano G. Vallejo, in Niles, ca.1930. The open wooden door of the adobe building is flanked by triangular buttresses. The roof is made of terra cotta tiles, and there is an adobe chimney towards the left side of the picture. There is a single window cut into the front wall of the house, and a curtain is visible beyond the open glass pane. The branches of a tall tree stretch over the roof, and in the background, there is a wooden fence with palm trees on both sides. See CHS-9674 for the same adobe from a different angle.
