Photograph of an exterior view of the Purcell adobe at 328 North Mission Road as seen from the rear, San Gabriel, ca.1930. A squat garage-like building stands in the foreground, obscuring much of the two-story adobe house's porch where two rocking chairs sit. Roses have been grown into the eaves of the roof. The ground is dry and covered in scrub vegetation. Tree foliage hangs in both from the left and right top corners of the frame.
