This is an original 1960s snapshot photograph, likely a silver gelatin print, depicting the California School for the Deaf. The image prominently features the school's sign which reads "CALIFORNIA SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF FOUNDED AD 1860 STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION." The photograph captures the architecture of the building, surrounded by trees and grass, with a person visible near the sign. This piece of vernacular photography offers a glimpse into institutional history and education in California during the mid-20th century.

The reverse side of the photograph features a "KODAK VELOX PAPER" watermark, confirming its authenticity as a vintage silver gelatin print. A date stamp "JUN 60" is visible on the left edge, and "1960" is handwritten on the right, precisely dating this historical snapshot. This listing includes the single unmounted photograph as pictured.
