Photograph of an exterior view of the Jose Lopez adobe in Old Town, San Diego, ca.1934. The one-story adobe rancher is shown at an angle, slanting off towards the left distance. Bushes and saplings line the front porch, obscuring much of it, although the steps can be seen just to the right of center. Farther right, a small, shack-like annex is visible, possibly made partially of wood and in apparent disrepair. Two illegible plaques are mounted on posts to the left.
