Thursday, September 4, 2014
With an extensive archive that stretches back to the 19th century, we’d be fools not to sit back each Thursday and cruise on the vast fabulousness of the historic images at our fingertips. So, each Throwback Thursday will bring you a choice selection of San Francisco history from the SFMTA Photographic Archives.
