This mid-century modern edifice, also known as the Stanislaus County Courts Building, served as the judicial branch for the county, prominently located at the intersection of 11th and H Streets in downtown Modesto, California.

The building's sleek lines and expansive windows reflect the architectural trends of the 1950s or 1960s, a period of growth and modernization for many American cities. This collectible item, distributed by Modesto News Co., offers a glimpse into the past, preserving the visual legacy of a significant civic landmark and the streetscape that surrounded it.
