Picked this up at the Palace Station show. For those who have never left their heart in the city by the bay, it shows one of the landmarks of San Francisco. Not sure if this was part of a set sold for home use or maybe just an individual chip sold as some sort of cheap souvenir? I think I've deduced the date range for its manufacture, which is why I've blown it up in my scan. If you look on the left of the building you can see a little aerial tram. This tram took people on rides to view the ocean and Seal Rocks between 1955 and 1961 so it stands to figure that was probably when this chip was created. Anyone ever seen any other colors of this chip?
