St. Tikhon's orphanage, which was moved from Shanghai, was established in San Francisco in 1951. I don't know when it closed, but St. John died in 1966. So we can date the photo 1951—1966.

A small group of boys from the several hundreds of abandoned street orphans, both girls and boys, in Shanghai, China, that St. John rescued. These he was able to bring to America, to his St. Tikhon's Orphanage, in San Francisco.
