A photograph of mourners entering the Walter P. Temple Memorial Mausoleum in El Campo Santo Cemetery for the funeral of John H. Temple, April 1926. The image is taken from just outside the structure with several adults and two children on the sidewalk and the steps leading into the mausoleum. At the bottom of the image are several floral displays. At the top and right are three columns and part of the entranceway into the structure. On the reverse is a stamp which reads "WEBBS / APRIL 14 1926 / SAN JOSE," the date referring to the processing date. At the bottom right corner is the stamped number "30." Preprinted at several locations on the reverse is the brand name "VELOX" referring to Kodak paper. With some light discoloration and surface soiling, the overall condition is good.
