Recently, a perpetual calendar was published called “Everyday Dogs” by the Bancroft Library’s own Susan Snyder! The calendar couples literary quotes about canines with historical images of dogs from the Bancroft Library’s vast collections. In honor of its publication, we have selected our own favorite dog images from the San Francisco Examiner’s Photographic Prints! Enjoy, and check out Everyday Dogs: A Perpetual Calendar for Birthdays and Other Notable Dates.
