SUPER RARE Vintage OTIS Single-File Escal-aires - Hilton Union Square - San Francisco, CA

These are the first OTIS Escal-aires I've ever seen in person! These are pretty neat and have really cool landing plate logos. Unfortunately, both of these were not running during my visit since there were no events going on. It was still nice to see these though!

I took these for granted as a child since my former local Sears had these. Otherwise, this was a video I've been eager to see for awhile since some still pics you shared.

Very interesting. Shame they weren't running. Any idea what year they were installed?

I believe in 1964 when this hotel was built
