Pub Note:
A series of six detailed insurance map volumes reflecting the specific building uses and construction types for the City of San Francisco in September 1905. This was just six months before the devastating April 1906 Earthquake and Fire. These volumes were in fact damaged by the fire but remain largely intact with some content loss in some of the volumes. The atlases are the property of the San Francisco Public Library. Original 1899 survey is overlaid with pasted-in building updates for ten different dates, the last being September 1905. Maps in full color with detailed legend including firehouses, stables, elevators, chimneys, steam boilers, firewalls, doorways, etc.
