For San Francisco they have only one museum - bookbinder. I didn't even know we had such a museum!

I'm seeing three in San Francisco, one in Berkeley, and a few others in the South Bay.

The listing for the Philadelphia area has quite a few places I don't know.

I see 4 in SF & others all around the Bay Area (Santa Clara, Alameda, Marin, Napa, Sonoma, Solano Counties) & some in Sacramento & the Valley. Quite a list of smaller museums for the most part I've never heard of, which I suspect is the whole point. VERY interesting.

I've just noticed the city search feature is pretty lame. It lists 3 museums if you check SF, when in fact there are 4. And Sacramento isn't even on the city list though there are participating museums. Maybe, as my father would say, "Good enough for government work". Not.
