Wells Fargo Building
Henry Wells and William Fargo opened the first office of Wells Fargo & Company in San Francisco in 1852. Within three years the firm quickly became the dominant express firm in the entire old west.Rocking back and forth like a giant cradle on wheels, the stagecoaches crisscrossed the new land sprinkling it with miners, merchants, bankers, and farmers.
This exact building lives proudly at Columbia State Park, Ca, in the heart of the Gold Country and is open as a museum. The Wells Fargo Legal Dept in San Francisco were quite nasty with us because of the sketch of the little bank robbers doing their thing on the back of the model.
