Street Scenes

Photo crop exposure date: unknown.
Exposure date (or window) of subject photo: Pre-1877.
Subject: Photo crop of street scene. View is south on Soledad. Taken from the west sidewalk showcasing Robert Wulfing’s dry goods (and according to the Mexican Consul, guns also) store at the SE corner of Soledad and Main Plaza. Must be prior to 1877 as the three-story stone Dauenhauer building is completed there by late 1877. Note how the iron-tired wheels of the hacks, wagons and other vehicles shatter the sidewalk.
