The year was 1942, World War II was raging, and

a young Mrs. White had come all the way from
Houston to the Bay Area to say goodbye to her
husband Frank, a navy sailor being sent out to
war. One of their last cocktails was at the
famous Hula Shack, also known as Jade Hula
Shack. Mrs. White kept this napkin as a memento
of their farewell and placed it in her scrapbook
where it has remained untouched for all these
years. The date was March 1942 and she
documented this event, as well as many others,
in her diary-scrapbook. Date written next to
napkin on album page.
