The 3 photographic images show (1) San Francisco the morning of April 18th, (2) the intact residential section of the city, as taken from an air ship over Twin Peaks, & (3) the active & untouched San Francisco waterfront as of June, taken by another air ship. Sheet size: 27-3/4" x 21". Folded: 10-1/2" x 7". Rocq mentions a 'pocket', none is present here. A 'folder' issued by the Southern Pacific a few months after the conflagration to update interested parties [stockholders?] that San Francisco was NOT destroyed, is still active & viable, and that the city's situation should now be viewed as an "Opportunity", with "the mighty forces that here created a great city . [are now] creating a greater one ." Some modest age toning to paper. Occasional split along a fold junction. A Very Good copy of a somewhat uncommon item, with OCLC recording 7 holding institutions.
