“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
''San Francisco Examiner'' newspaper dated 9 May 1906, weeks after the giant earthquake that all but destroyed the City by the Bay. Headlines include: ''Will Be The First New Apartment House In City'' and ''Ready to Put in 5,000 Telephones''. Articles include interesting tidbits such as the fact that the tumbler killed valuable, pest-eating bugs. 17'' x 11.5'' folded, 17'' x 23'' unfolded. Section one only runs 16pp. Toning and minor chipping throughout, .25'' hole in upper left not affecting masthead or headlines, overall very good.
