Description
Photograph of a delapidated building behind a dirt road, ca.1930-1939. An oil rig sits in the distance at center, opposite a rickety structure at left. Several utility poles cut through the scene, and a sign that reads "Adobe St." and "Chavez Ravine" is visible in the foregound next to a large tank. Mounds of dirt coat the sidewalk in the foreground, and a makeshift dirt road cuts into it at left.
