Description
This collection consists of 47 photographic negatives with contact prints, largely documenting demolition work on the damaged Stanford Museum following the 1906 earthquake, including the lowering of the still-intact glass dome. Several images include groups of workers and the horse-drawn carts and wagons used to haul away the debris. Other subjects include university employee Fred Frehe, ("farm boss"), the demolition of the statue of faith, and several post-quake images of the campus.
