I don't know too much about this slide, except it was taken in the evening in San Francisco's Chinatown, circa 1956. I like the neon signs. View full size.

I love it, the sun's going down and all the neon signs are coming on. I can almost smell the Chinese food cooking in all the restaurants.

Reminds me of the Hitchcock movie, "Vertigo." Remember when Jimmy Stewart follows Kim Novak's Jaguar all around SF? Way hip photo.
