MATTRESS ON MINNA:

This mattress lay in the gutter at Minna and Eighth Sts. in San Francisco on August 27, 2011. So what's a few stains if you need to rest? And can the police ticket a mattress for lying in a red zone? It gets a five star rating! Photo moved from another page 05/07/14.

MATTRESS ON I-280:


Here is the corollary to Mattress on Minna. I discovered this one at the on ramp from Cesar Chavez onto 280 southbound on May 1, 2018. My travels in San Francisco were such that I passed it a second time and was able to grab the camera. Four photos added 05/20/18.

STOP REQUEST:

On an N Judah streetcar trip August 27, 2011 I joked to my traveling companions that the first photo, in which a stop request cord is visible in the right foreground, would make the basis of a page containing pictures of such cords. I then took photos of one of the Stop Request signs within the car (Breda 1479). Photos moved from another page 05/07/14.
