"Map of the City and County of San Francisco [in] Candrian’s Double Indexed A to Z Street Guide of San Francisco…",

An attractive early 20th century map of the city by H.A. Candrian showing the street grid pattern, neighborhoods, parks, and cemeteries. Locates the Presidio, Golden Gate Park, and China Basin with a legend further identifying street car lines, railroads, bus lines, and elevation. The verso contains a large map of San Mateo. The 127 pages of accompanying text is primarily a street index, but also includes seven pages of “Car-o-Grams” displaying the various street car lines. Candrian was especially proud of the map, and dedicated a full page to commend the printer, commenting that “the work done [on the map] was the best we have ever had.” No past sales records of institutional examples located for this 1926 edition. 12mo., cream paper wrappers.
