A second Genthe transparency made on the day of the earthquake
1906
Another of the frames Arnold Genthe exposed on 18 April 1906, catalogued alongside his Chinatown and earthquake photographs at the Library of Congress. Like its companion it survives as a transparency. The archive record gives the photographer and the date but no description of what is in the frame.
