Product Details

The Center for Disease Control has recommended the use of cloth face masks to help fight the spread of COVID-19.

This face mask is made from 100% polyester and includes two ear loops with adjustable grommets for a comfortable fit.

The printed area of the mask is approximately 7" wide by 5" tall.   This mask fits well on adult mens' faces without the grommets but, due to the adjustable grommets, can be worn snuggly by adult women, as well.

Please note - this is NOT a surgical grade mask. It is not intended for any medical or commercial uses, whatsoever. It is a simple, cloth mask designed for everyday use to cover your mouth when out in public. The mask should not be used in any medical or surgical setting.

We make no warranties that the mask prevents infections or the transmission of viruses or diseases.

Artist's Description

As tourists enjoy the ride on one of San Francisco's famous cable cars, below the street steel cables pull them along as they climb and descends the city's hilly topography.

Those cables all come together at the historic Washington/Mason cable car barn in Nob Hill, where people can watch the General Electric motors turn the wheels that pull the cables under the city streets. The car barn is the only remaining powerhouse in San Francisco, running all five surviving cable car routes in the city.

Iron wheels spin at about 3 times per second in the cable car barn. Once leaving their respective wheel, the cables make its way under the city, pulling cable cars along at 9.5mph. Visitors to the Cable Car Museum can watch these wheels spin as they explore historic artifacts and, of course, find a souvenir in the gift shop.

About Darin Volpe

Darin Volpe

I have been photographing the things I see for over thirty years. A resident of San Luis Obispo County, I'm lucky to have many excellent photo destinations within a few minutes' or hours' drive. Beyond the local area, I have traveled throughout California and the western United States, visited far away American destinations such as Chicago, New York, Florida, and Alaska, and international destinations in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. My photography varies from Architecture to Industrial Art to Nature to Wildlife and I'm sure you'll find something suitable for your home or office. Visit my blog
