Exhibition Showcases Photos Documenting San Francisco of the Early 20th Century

Share

The photographs of amateur Harry Smith captured San Francisco in the early years of the 20th century. His work, discovered in the 1970s by noted L.A.-based photography collector Stephen White, recorded everything from vacations in the country with family and friends to the near destruction of the city in the 1906 earthquake.

Many of them will be on display starting today at the Michael Dawson Gallery, 535 N. Larchmont Blvd.

White will discuss his discovery and revival of the Smith archive in a presentation on Sept. 23 at 2:30 p.m.
