Opened: It was a south-of-Market porno operation that debuted in 1969 on the south side of the street, west of 6th. It's a photo taken by Tom Gray from the Jack Tillmany collection. Jack comments:

"The front was blood red. Sorry, it didn't last long enough for a color photo."

Closed: 1970  

Status: The building survives.
