Sutro Baths bathing suits. Italian porcelain muses. A carved wooden grizzly bear. A cowboy sculpture from Playland-at-the-Beach. An oil painting of San Francisco s wealthy 24th mayor, Adolph Sutro.
These eclectic items, and more roughly 60 items in total were saved from the closure of San Francisco s historic Cliff House restaurant for the posterity of the public this weekend.
The items didn t just survive the closure of the Cliff House restaurant, but also a late January burglary.
