[SAN FRANCISCO]. Where to Sin in… Preface by Beniamino Bufano. [San Francisco:] Jack Lord & Jenn Shaw, 1939. Small 8vo. Numerous illustrations by Lloyd Hoff. Plastic comb-bound pictorial wrappers (some light toning, rear wrapper corner slightly clipped). RARE FIRST EDITION, first printing with “many drawings by Lloyd Hoff”.

During the mid-20th century, San Francisco earned the reputation as a “sin city” due to its association with counterculture movements and liberal attitudes.
