All four cards of these cards are based on the same post-earthquake photo, presumably by Weidner. The "Grant Avenue" caption of the Newman and Pacific Novelty cards is incorrect: the image looks west on Washington Street from Washington Place ("Fish Alley", now Wentworth Place, just above Portsmouth Square), and several of the buildings still stand in 2019.
