Photo shows men, women, and children in a park in San Francisco following the 1906 earthquake and fires. Tents and blankets strung up to make tents are in and among various pieces of furniture and luggage that people managed to salvage from the disaster. On the sidewalk in the foreground is a women wearily sitting on an overturned box watching a pot cooking on a makeshift fire in front of her. Next to her are two men trying to get their own fire started. Handwritten at the bottom left corner of the print (which appeared on the original negative)- "Estey and Rogers 1012 Fillmore St., S.F." Tribune captions on the back, April 21, 1940-- "These two park scenes show portions of the 'tent city' that sprung up in parks during the fire and continued in operation for the rehabilitation period. When these pictures were taken chaos still reigned and people were struggling to obtain a semblance of order in the hastily assembled camps." April 15, 1956-- "In the parks of San Francisco, tent cities were thrown up for the fire refugees." Photo was probably made from the original glass negative which is missing from the Tribune collection.
