Description
Photograph of homes along an unpaved Castelar Street looking north from Sunset Blvd., Sonora Town, ca.1880. A squat, one-story adobe and an elevated craftsman-style house stand along the left side of the road along with windmill and a cluster of trees. To the right, a third house can be seen, also one-story, partially obscured by tree foliage. A tall antenna or weather vain appears to extend from its roof. Hills can be seen beyond the trees in the background.
