VIPS in San Francisco during the 1800s

June 20, 2014: As of this date, we have found little information about Don Maskell & Co. in historical publications. The Daily Alta California notes several Maskells: (John) Maskell & (A.) Summerfield.

A search of the internet turns up Don Maskell & Co., 496 Jefferson Street, San Francisco, CA. and indicates that the business specializes in Art Galleries.
