Vintage

I love old things...they remind me of sweeter gentler times. When we were in San Francisco Airport recently I was amazed at all of the old photos displayed on the walls. Tom kept telling me to "come on" so I didn't get pictures of all the things I wanted to.

There was this great old picture of what San Francisco Airport use to look like. I am guessing this was back in the 50"s

Then there was a picture of a Stewardess....yes that was what they were called back then. She appears to be on the steps of a DC-3

No security here. Yes, that is the way we use to board an aircraft. How do I know that is a DC-3. Well I use to be a Stewardess on one. Not in the 1950's, but in the mid 1960's.

By this time I was running to catch up with my husband. Wait a minute. What's this?? Why it's an exhibit of the Art Deco Era. No, I am not that old but, man I wanted to see it.

First there was the car. A beautiful Pierce Arrow.

Oh it was a beauty

Then they had these displays inside plastic boxes (sometimes difficult to photograph). Pretty nifty old luggage.

Royal Rochester  period dishes....sorry about the glare

A typical 1920's bar

 The latest technology for listening to music

There were even some fashions display.. like the swimsuit of that era,

and I guess what would be called a Flapper Outfit?

By this time, my husband is announcing that our flight is boarding. Oh Darn! There are at least ten exhibits I have missed. So, if you are passing through the San Francisco airport I suggest you allow some time to walk through terminal two.
