Photo is likely extremely rare or one of a kind. Professionally packaged in a rigid mailer for safe delivery.Photo OverviewThe photograph shows the iconic Cliff House in San Francisco, perched dramatically on a rocky promontory overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It captures a beach scene with groups of people strolling along the shore, dressed in early 20th-century attire, indicative of the year 1904. The ocean waves gently lap against the sand, and the grand structure of the Cliff House is prominently displayed in the background.Cliff House has a rich history, having been a beloved destination for San Franciscans and tourists alike. Originally built in 1863, it underwent several reconstructions due to damage from fires and the elements. The version seen here in 1904 is the third Cliff House, known for its elaborate architecture that resembles a castle. This configuration of Cliff House met its demise in 1907 due to a fire, leading to yet another rebuilding effort in 1909.Text PresentCliff HouseSan Francisco1904Condition: Good to fair vintage condition.
