shows produced by SFBAPCC members. NOVEMBER 2024
Nov. 23, Saturday, CLUB MEETING - We are meeting on Nov. 23 (the FOURTH Saturday of the month, not the LAST Saturday) - San Francisco Bay Area Post Card Club from 11 AM to 3 PM at Fort Mason Center, San Francisco in Building C, Room C-205. The club meeting will be called to order at 1:00 PM and the program will follow. Fort Mason and the SF Department of Public Health have stated that people who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 are required to bring proof of vaccination, but are not required to wear a mask, and that people who are not fully vaccinated are required to wear a mask. It’s recommended that everyone wear a Covid-19 mask. We will observe whatever rules are in place at the time. Stay safe. Please join us for a presentation by Bruce Campbell on Santa Claus postcards. Bruce will share postcards from the Golden Age illustrated by Ellen Clapsaddle, Samuel Schumacher, Frances Brundadge, Alfred Mailick and others, as well as cards published by John Winsch, Raphael Tuck & Sons and the International Art Publication Company. We will discover the evolution of Santa’s modes of transport, his clothing and even his demeanor. The Santa we will see is a delightful, grandfatherly, very human embodiment of the spirit of Christmas. HOLIDAY FINGER FOOD POTLUCK: As every November, the festive board will be groaning under the trays and platters of sweet and savory finger foods that we each prepare. Cookies or cheese, anchovies or chocolate—bring what you enjoy sharing. The club will provide plates, table ware and some drinks. Please remember that we will be looking at postcards; goopy and greasy tidbits will not be in order. This will be the last club meeting for 2024. There is an hourly fee for parking within the gates of Fort Mason Center, but upper Fort Mason (enter at Franklin and Bay Streets) and parking spaces along the Marina Green are free. Parking can be difficult, so come early and enjoy the Goody Cafe, Maritime Library, Greens Restaurant or amble through the community garden, because there’s plenty to see and do. We often gather before 11 AM at the picnic tables or in the exhibit area in Bldg. B. More info on directions, GPS, parking, maps, etc.
