Photograph of San Francisco earthquake damage, showing the Mutual Life Building amidst the ruins of Kearney Street, 1906. The tall Mutual Life Building stands on the left with a few fallen pieces of stone on the steps of its column-guarded entrance. Two men in dark suits observe the rubble which has spilt on to the street from the damaged buildings which continue to the center distance. Wooden chairs and tables stand in the foreground on the far right.
