    This guy was a prominent San Francisco mayor from about 1968 to 1972. He was a very avuncular guy and seemed to enjoy being mayor. Senator Dianne Feinstein was on the City Council during his mayoral term.

    "Bird's-eye-view of ruins of San Francisco from captive airship, 600 feet above Folsom " doesn't begin to describe it. Lawrence used a train of 7 large kites to lift his homebuilt 49 pound panoramic camera to altitude, trusting a clockwork to trigger and pan the camera at the right time.
