A black and white photograph of the Workman House south porch wall, July 1978. The image features a detailed view of the porch's top northeast corner with the plaster on the wall partially stripped. In the center the plaster is completely gone revealing a portion of the home's original adobe wall. Part of the plaster on the far left has a sign that reads, "SOUTH PORCH/ NORTH SIDE"; below the sign is a checkered ruler indicating the scale of the image. Across the bottom center and to the far right are lintels for doorways with the top of the center door in partial view. Written in black on the top left corner is: "WORKMAN RESIDENCE/ -SOUTH PORCH/ NORTH SIDE - TAKEN BEFORE RESTORATION/ -JEFF TYLER photo (ALHAMBRA, CA.) neg. #92/ -1 1/2" SCALE/ -TAKEN Jun/ July 1978/ ca." To the right is a stamp with the name and business information of Raymond Girvigian, the restoration architect. With no signs of wear, the image is in good condition.
