MEIGS, 512 Kearny Street, San Francisco, listing goods such as jewelry, fancy goods, caps, cutlery, notions, furnishing goods, hats, trunks, and valises, with a central horseshoe logo. Text notes 'DODGE & CO. PRINTERS, 721 MARKET'. The reverse side of the fan, marked 'FD Irwell & Co Boston.' and 'Pat Applied for.', features a central roundel depicting a landscape with trees, water, sailboats, and a bird on a rocky outcrop, framed by a crescent shape.
