Club Meeting at Fort Mason Center

OCTOBER 2023
Oct. 21, Saturday, CLUB MEETING - San
Francisco Bay Area Post Card Club from 11 AM to 3 PM at Fort Mason Center, San Francisco in Building C,
Room C-230. The club meeting will be called to order at 1:00 PM
and the program will follow. Fort Mason
and the SF Department of Public Health have stated that people who are
fully vaccinated against Covid-19 are required to bring proof of
vaccination, but are not required to wear a mask, and that people who
are not fully vaccinated are required to wear a mask. It’s
recommended that everyone wear a Covid-19 mask. We will
observe whatever rules are in place at the time. Stay safe.
Please bring cards for Show & Tell, and items for Raffle and Free
Tables. Chinese postcard enthusiast Dennis
Owyang will show cards and recount the thrilling adventures of the
youngest of China's first-generation movie stars, who disappeared from
the limelight at the peak of popularity in 1928. Her many fans lived
out the rest of their lives believing an erroneous 1944 news report
that she died in a plane accident. Chinese Internet information
on her would not be updated until her biography in 2007, finally
revealing her amazing second career as a modern-day Mulan, leading to
glorification in an American comic book, an American bubblegum card, a
street name in Switzerland, a magazine cover in South America, a park
statue in Canton, and her archives at the Smithsonian. In her second
career, she charmed a new generation of fans, including actress Anna
May Wong and diplomat Hilda Yan, and became China's best wartime
ambassador to the U.S. We are meeting in Room C-230. This meeting
particular will occur on the 3rd week of the month rather than the 4th
week.
There is an hourly fee for parking within the gates of Fort Mason Center, but upper Fort Mason (enter at Franklin and Bay Streets) and parking spaces along the Marina Green are free. Parking can be difficult, so come early and enjoy the Goody Cafe, Maritime Library, Greens Restaurant or amble through the community garden, because there’s plenty to see and do. We often gather before 11 AM at the picnic tables or in the exhibit area in Bldg. B. More info on directions, GPS, parking, maps, etc.
