The Armory Long Before Kink

I came across this 1915 postcard of The Armory while rummaging through an antique store yesterday (more on that later).  Red brick walls instead of the grey walls we see today.  An American flag rather than the leather pride flag.  A light rail Muni rolling down Mission Street.  And even more surprising, an actual, real live TREE on the sidewalk.  1915 Mission District, you crazy.

Would you be interested in selling this post card? We would love to have a copy of it to frame in the building.
Thanks

good find, was it at The Apartment - they have that kind of shit there. But isn’t that a cable car?

I think today’s mini palm trees in front of Arriba Juntos win for cutest foliage…
