I remember an old Kolchak when they went underground to some part of the city that had sunk after the quake.

I don’t know if that was real or a re-creation of the show.

I saw a picture of my grandfather with his business partner a guy called Gianini, they were making rebuilding bank loans through their bank the Bank of Italy on orange crates amid the smoking ruins of SF just after the quake and fires.

Fires that made the burnt down other banks vaults too hot to even open.
His name was John Spigno.
I of course never met him as he died in 1944.
But my grandmother told me stories about how influential he was with rebuilding SF, he later became vice president of Bank of America.

What time of day was this shot I wonder? There doesn’t seem to be an awful lot of people out and about.
