I just came across this great site called San Francisco Memories which goes into great detail about San Francisco’s past. This website is littered with old photos and memorabilia from across the city. Some of the subjects covered are the 1915 World’s Fair, the 1906 earthquake, and the history behind the famous Cliff House. I had great fun for hours just looking at all the cool old photos (here and here) and the site even boasts a nice collection of 3D pictures and interactive photos and maps (check out this map from the 1915 World’s Fair - click any where on the map and an old photo will appear). Anyway, just thought I’d share…
by local historian, Jacqueline Proctor. The pictures alone are worth seeing and the history behind the city is fascinating so this site is definitely worth checking out. And if you’d like to order the book new for only $19.99, follow the book link above.
