Description
The Thomas Mayer papers document the Friends of 1800’s successful campaign to convince the board of the Community Center Project

the future LGBT Community Center. The collection includes materials related both to the Friends and to Mayer, who was one
of the organizers of the Friends and a former co-owner of the Roxie Cinema in the Mission District.
