From photographic negatives created by William R. Simmons, editor of the Commercial Record newspaper between 1941 and 1961.
More information may be in the 2001 SDHS book "Off the Record" in which James Schmiechen speculates the photo's location was "a small building to the rear at the northeast corner of Water and Hoffman Streets"
