Vintage Neon Sign San Francisco Iconic Moose's Restaurant
About the Item
Own a genuine piece of San Francisco history. This iconic neon sign adorned the North Beach iconic restaurant "Moose's" owned by Ed and Mary Etta Moose. Moose's opened in 1990. The two places attracted mayors, senators, sports stars, musicians, writers, celebrities, artists and a smattering of tourists and ordinary San Franciscans. In their heyday, they were full of music and customers every night. At times, it was nearly impossible to find room at the bar or a table for dining.
"He led the life he always wanted," said former NBC news anchor Tom Brokaw, who often dined at the Washington Square and Moose's. "It was a life filled with saloons, cronies, chilled martinis, politics, baseball, jazz and laughs built around a great meal. He was the last of the breed."
"Ed Moose was larger than life with a love for food and politics," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was a friend of Mr. Moose and his wife, Mary Etta. "People from all over the city and the country were drawn to Moose's to make friends and fun."
Former Mayor Willie Brown called Mr. Moose "the lord of North Beach."
