The Ford Barn

The Academy of Art auto collection is being auctioned in SF on February 15, over 100 spectacular cars, all at no reserve including a number of beautiful pre-war Fords (plus quite a few coach-built 30's beauties if you happen to have half a million bucks burning a hole in your pocket). The collection can be viewed Feb 13 and 14 for $10, it is usually closed to the public-I saw it a few years ago and it is well worth it. The Academy of Art, as I understand it, at one time was one of the largest landowners in the City. My wife, who worked as a commercial illustrator, graduated from there in the '70's.
