Color: Black; White
A black and white photograph of a detail of the Workman House south porch wall, ca. June/ July 1978. The plaster-covered wall has stippling to resemble granite and stains, and cracks throughout. In the center is a large gap in the plaster through which is the home's original adobe wall. White construction markings cover the adobe, while to the right is a scale. Above the scale is a sign reading, "SOUTH PORCH/ NORTH SIDE." White paint covers the top portion of the northwest corner on the far left. Written in black on the back top left is: "WORKMAN RESIDENCE/ -SOUTH PORCH / NORTH SIDE - TAKEN BEFORE RESTORATION/ -JEFF TYLER photo, neg. #89 (ALHAMBRA)/ -3/4" scale/ -TAKEN Jun/ July 1978/ ca." Below 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.
