Panoramic view looking east down Sacramento Street from Nob Hill with several Chinese at left; Telegraph Hill at left in distance. Probably made from a photograph; several misunderstandings as a result. This was used for Baird 317; one copy of Baird 235 at California Historical Society has date of January 12 1867 suggesting that the 1860 date on Baird 317 may not be actual date of publication. See also Baird 236. Some staining throughout but mostly to the edges. Overall a lovely copy of an incredibly rare piece. Copy at UC Berkeley.
