Scarce Muir Beach Captain Ahab’s Homecoming Poster
West Coast Natural Gas Company was the band that performed at “Captain Ahab’s Homecoming,” held at Deno Carlo in Muir Beach in September 1967. Deno Carlo was an infamous venue that offered loud music and promoted nudity. The situation finally became so bad that an anonymous individual offered the State of California $125,000 to match funds so that the beach could be purchased and turned into a public park. The acquisition was completed in January 1969 and the tavern that housed Deno Carlo was torn down, much to the delight of the area’s residents.
Medium: A Buyers Premium of 15% will be added to the hammer price of all lots.
