MARCH 2023
Mar. 25, 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-205. 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. Chuck Banneck will be the speaker: "The NOVELTY of the Panama Pacific Exposition International Exposition (PPIE)." In 1915, there were 18 million visitors to San Francisco and the fair, and they all seemed to buy the same souvenir postcards. Well, maybe not all. We’ll look this month at some of the more unusual cards that were available. These novel souvenirs were produced by many of the exhibitors and companies doing business around the fair, and come in many different shapes, sizes and materials. 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.
