Content: Printed on verso: "Overlooking the Golden Gate and visible for miles at sea, the Palace of the Legion of Honor of San Francisco dominates and houses a wealth of art and museum objects gathered throughout Europe including 'The Thinker' by Rodin. It is a memory of the war contributed by Mrs. Alma de Bretville Spreckels and the late A.B. Spreckels in French renaissance of the Louis VI period. The Court of Honor follows the lines of the Court of the Legion of Honor in Paris."
