The City of Paris Christmas Tree measured more tha 50 feet high, erected as it comes from the forest. Adorned with 4000 ornaments and more than 2000 lights. Tree selected trained woodsmen weeks in advance…flame-proofed upon arrival in the city. Street roped off, doors removed to allow its entry late at night. Scaffolding with cat-walks allows even trimming by acrew of 30 men who worked 18 hours to make it ready for unveiling. Christmas 1951, the 51st tree, is the store’s 101st year.

The City of Paris was celebrating its 101st year so they put out a postcard for customers to mail during the holidays home to friends & family.

We share the City of Paris Department Store history of the 1850s SF: Paris of the Pacific free walking tour. RSVP: https://sfcityguides.org/tour/paris-of-the-pacific/

On this day, we commemorate the effort of the incredible Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. whose life was tragically cut short as he grappled with the social structure of race in this country in hopes of leaving behind a better world than he had inherited. Indeed his legacy remains unmatched. One of the best of us. Thank you Dr. King! A toast to a better world for which you laid the foundation 🥂
