Description:
This black and white photograph shows a building which is single story on the right and has a second story over the left hand portion. The right hand single story part has a door with a small overhang between two windows with awnings. There is a sign over each window, the left one reading OCEANIC and the right one reading REALTY. There is a decorative panel between the two signs over the door. The left side of the building has two shutter trimmed windows on the upper level. There is an open door on the right, next to the realty office and two large display type windows taking up the rest of the downstairs frontage. The right hand window is filled with what appears to be postings and the left hand window appears to have some shelves with books and other items on display. There is a sign below the upper windows which reads (very faintly) STINSON BEACH LIBRARY. Cars are parked diagonally in front of the building.
