  1. I’ll be cohosting another tour with SF Neon on March 4. We visit sites in the Union Square neighborhood and connect their signs and matchbooks to #SanFrancisco’s nightlife history. Just a few tickets left! sfneon.org/

  3. Matchbook Collection 2, Valley Relics Museum, Van Nuys, California

    We finally made it over to the Valley Relics Museum (valleyrelicsmuseum.org/), even though it is just “up the street” from where we live. There were a lot of great artifacts including a huge neon sign collection. Check it out when you are at a loss for something to do in the San Fernando Valley.

  7. More from @stewf’s collection of matchbooks, including “feature” matchbooks (with printing directly on the flattened matches inside) and “ten strikers” (smaller matchbooks containing only 10 matches).

  9. Washington Square Bar & Grill (called the Washbag by Herb Caen) was a favorite hangout of writers, reporters, and jazz lovers for over 20 years. It opened in 1973, and by 1987 did more business per seat than any SF restaurant. Owners Ed Moose and Sam Deitsch sold the place in 1990, and it has been through many changes since. It's currently Lillie Coit’s. (CC @DavidGallagher)
