Some 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire views and some Berkeley landscapes and building views are present, as well as some photographs of Michaelis family members. At least one view of the home at 2212 Grove Street (later MLK) in Berkeley, Calif. is present, and this residence is where these negatives were discovered circa 2015.
