Title of this Directory:
The illustrated directory; a magazine of American cities, comprising views of business blocks, with reference to owners, occupants, professions and trades, public buildings and private residences.
Vol 1. San Francisco. (Parts 1-11 complete). Published by the Illustrated Directory Company ...
1894
Extremely rare, city directory consisting of 168 drawn illustrations of the building street fronts and businesses of all the buildings of the downtown area of San Francisco.
Almost all of these buildings were destroyed in the fire of 1906. Published in 11 parts in 1894 and 1895, all included here.
The illustrations of the buildings are very well done. Most surviving copies have only nine of the eleven parts. An amazing piece of San Francisco history. |
