: If you had a choice of any souvenir from San Francisco from any past time period, what would it be?

This is almost impossible. There's so much I would like to have. So let's blur the boundaries between genealogy and SF history.

I'd like to have a playbill or agenda for an event at the Palace Hotel featuring entertainment by Al Pierce and Walter Smith (my grandfather) on Sep 7, 1926. The event was to kickoff a plan to make San Francsico a year-around convention city. I do have the news clip from the examiner.
