Private collector’s historic San Francisco photos now available online [View all]

San Francisco history aficionados are in for a spectacular treat: A private collector has donated thousands of incredible historic San Francisco photos to the Western Neighborhoods Project. WNP is, in turn, digitizing all the images and posting them online.

The first batch to be posted on their online archive — over 1,100 images in total — are of the Cliff House, Sutro Baths, Sutro Heights and Ocean Beach areas. You can see 10 of those images in the gallery above and the rest here.
