Clements, E. F.
E. F. Clements (c. 1955 - 1972) was a purveyor of postcards and tourist knick-knacks based in San Francisco, California. Little information is available about him, including his full name. San Francisco directories of the time note both an Elsworth F. Clements (listed as an accountant) and an Edward F. Clements (listed as a bookkeeper or salesman, depending on the year). In addition to postcards and tchotchkes, Clements also published a 1972 map of San Francisco (OCLC 977281483) and a picture book titled The Story of San Francisco Cable Cars.
