Hi folks,

I'll be travelling to USA for the 1st time, and staying in the San Francisco bay area (Lombard Street). Any ideas / suggestions of model shops I can pay a visit to? Thanks!

Lombard Street is IN San Francisco. I love the city

a list:

Franciscan Hobbies on Ocean

Heroes Club on Clement

Arch Drafting Supply on Missouri St for supplies

Pearl Arts and Craft supplies on Market, heard it was closed.. but they used to carry models

Talbot’s Toyland down south on the 101 in San Mateo, CA

you must check out Musee Mecanique, the Mechanical Museum of San Francisco

seriously, cool spot
