: : If you had a choice of any souvenir from San Francisco from any past time period, what would it be? It would be a bottle opener given out at a parade in San Francisco given by the Shriners or Masons. It was probably a parade celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the arrival of Portola in he Bay Area. We were little on a flat bed truck parked near 5th and Market Street.

My mother carried this in her purse and came to the rescue at many Catholic events until her death in 1962. I carried it until the early 1980's when I lost it.

Would love to have another one.
