San Francisco Hats
Description: California's Golden Gate Bridge spans the mile-wide strait known as the Golden Gate that connects San Francisco Bay with the Pacific Ocean. The bridge links San Francisco with Marin County, carrying both U.S. Route 101 and State Route 1 across the strait along with pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Recognized as one of the Wonders of the Modern World, the Golden Gate Bridge is without question the most recognized symbol of San Francisco, and this '70s style souvenir features the city name in stylized rainbow type to form the iconic suspension bridge. If this one looks familiar, it's most likely because it was worn by Arlene in the movie Death Proof, originally released theatrically as part of the Grindhouse double feature.
Description: Vintage poster promoting the Panama Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco in 1915. Essentially a World's Fair, the expo was a celebration of both the completion of the Panama Canal and the 400th anniversary of Balboa's discovery of the Pacific Ocean. It also helped showcase the city's recovery from the earthquake of 1906.
Description: The San Francisco Shamrocks are a defunct minor professional ice hockey team that played in the Pacific Hockey League (PHL) during the 1977–78 and 1978–79 seasons.
