San Francisco in Life Magazine in 1956

1956 Life Magazine article on San Francisco

Google Books has every issue of Life Magazine from November 1936 to December 1972 scanned and available for online viewing. Click here to see a feature on San Francisco from 1956:
"More than almost any city, San Francisco instills a fierce loyalty in residents and exerts a compelling charm on visitors. But few admirers explain why they love the city. Here Life's Nat Farbman, who has traveled the world and lived in glamorous Paris, tells in words and pictures what draws him to his home town."
