Featured Image

#1 — Alamo Plaza

Photo crop exposure date: unknown. Exposure date (or window) of subject photo: 1890-1893. Subject: Very poor photo crop of print exhibited and dated by MY SANANTONIO “from their files” which did not include the caption. The typed ascription; “NO PARKING OF AUTOMOBILES ALLOWED HERE” may be in reference to a nearby sign, not in the crop, that read “CARS STOP HERE” which has mistakenly been understood to mean automobiles, however the sign commonly indicated a streetcar stop and often gave reference to which lines and/or cars could be boarded at that location. R.A. Arthur building (1893) not present.
