San Francisco, California. Over 1000 Pages. City Directory with thousands of names and hundreds of advertisements for local businesses in the city and surrounding area. Francis Valentine, Printers. The spine has ads including my favorite "Manning's Oyster Grotto, located on Pine Street below Kearny, "Inventor of the Pan Roast"; the covers are advertising Insurance companies and Men's Clothing. Originally withdrawn from the California State Library in 1875. Highlights include a Colorful Britton, Rey & Co. Lithographer Advertising page in green with allegorical woman. Fine to VF condition overall. An amazing and historical reference book of a thriving city barely 25 years after the California Gold Rush began.
