Some history below:
SSome history: The first Cliff House was a modest structure built in 1863 by Senator John Buckley and C. C. Butler. Captain Junius Foster eventually leased the Cliff House Restaurant from C. C. Butler and under his management wealthy San Franciscans flocked to the coast to enjoy the unique restaurant and wonderful views. The guest register bore the names of three U.S. presidents as well as prominent San Francisco families such as the Hearsts, Stanfords, and Crockers, who would drive their carriages out to Ocean Beach for horse racing and recreation.
Beautiful real photo postcard in very good condition. Great old ship in the background looks to be a passenger steam ship. Early old cars and people enjoying a calmer and more serene lifestyle. Early turn of the last century, undivided card. Un-used. Very slightly bumped corners.
