I want that Souvenir! Contest

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

(If you are playing the contest, it ends 07 January 2006, midnight pst.)

For me: It's November 1915. The Panama Pacific International Exposition (P.P.I.E.) is about to close. But, Houdini is here now and Rose Wilder Lane, daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder (of "Little House on the Prairie" fame) who is also here, is doing an interview with him. I happen to walk by and ask if I may have my photograph taken with the three of them. They agree. I am in heaven.

Ron

p.s. Yes, all three were actually in San Francisco at the time. :-)
