Hans Richter giving me a tour of the already closed down San Francisco location: Hans rose to his rank from being the manager of the Munich Vic's. The Trader was impressed by his work and brought him to America. I got to go up to the hollowed grounds of the Trader's office. Wish I would have snapped more pics. Here's a close up of the display case and its treasures. Note the "Pre-Tiki Tiki post" next to it: The S.F Trader Vic opened two years after the Seattle Outrigger.
