JOHN H. TEMPLE FUNERAL, MOURNERS OUTSIDE THE CEMETERY
Color: Black; White
A photograph of mourners outside El Campo Santo Cemetery after the funeral of John H. Temple, April 1926. The image is taken from the driveway southwest of the entrance. At right are a group of persons standing next to a large black sedan, while others stand at left, including Walter P. Temple, facing the camera. A boy stands near the photographer, Thomas W. Temple, at foreground left. The tops of the pillars at the entrance gate are visible over the heads of the people in the group and over the car. At the center of the reverse is a stamp reading "WEBBS / APR 14 1926 / SAN JOSE," and at the lower 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.
