Historical Interest: Both landmarks opened in 1898. The Call Building was one of San Francisco's early skyscrapers and survived the 1906 earthquake and fire. Its distinctive dome was removed during extensive remodeling in 1937–1938. These plates depict the city's architecture as it appeared before that transformation. The exact date of manufacture is unknown.
