Temporary shelters in street after the April 18

Temporary shelters in street after the April 18, 1906 San Francisco, earthquake and 3-day fire. A hand written sign identified the burlap and rug-covered hovel as the Palace Hotel Grill. A man stands reading a newspaper on his front steps of his intact home. People could live in their stable homes, but could not cook inside until houses were inspected for gas leaks that would case explosions and/or fires. (BSLOC_2017_17_47)
