Published since 2005. San Francisco is a city that belongs to the people of the world. Hence this blog has a global focus. The name "Sam Spade's San Francisco" refers to an exciting era in the City's history, the time of Dashiell Hammett's fictional gumshoe and San Francisco character, Sam Spade. My name is Tom Dunn and I edit the blog. I'm not as exciting as Sam Spade, but I am definitely a San Francisco character.Contact or on Twitter -- Search blog below.

Corn Toys and Green Products = Investment Profit
Check your investment portfolio!
Do you currently invest in biodegradables? If not, you may want to reconsider. Not only has the Board of Supervisors passed a city law aimed at plastic shopping bags and Styrofoam take-out containers, but biodegradable products are becoming the product of choice all across the country. It is the right thing to do and becoming the smart thing in which to invest.
This week the San Francisco International Gift Fair will begin its five-day run at the Moscone Center. The fair is one of the largest in the world and is a great place to see the cutting edge in design and development and maybe even peak into the future. The brightest and best come to this show because California, if it were a separate nation unto itself, would be the seventh largest economy on the planet - and San Francisco and the Bay Area is generating most of the fuel that runs this powerful economy.
Parents looking for toys for their children can now add environmentally friendly toys to their buying options asGreen Toys™, Inc. today announced their new line of classic toys. Manufactured in the U.S.A., Green Toys brand toys are made of a new generation of environmentally friendly bioplastic material derived from renewable, sustainable resources like corn.
Green Toys will preview their initial line of toys at the San Francisco International Gift Fair, taking place July 28-August 1, at the Moscone Center in North Hall booth #7123.
“We’ve been involved in creating fun and innovative toys for years, but with Green Toys Inc. we feel that we’re doing more than providing children with entertainment. We’re also offering a real alternative for consumers looking for earth-friendly toys,” said Robert von Goeben, co-founder of Green Toys. “Our products are a blast for kids, important to parents, and good for the earth. What could be more fun than that?”
Green Toys Inc. has brought together some of the most advanced materials and technologies in the bioplastics industry.
The raw material used to make Green Toys brand toys is produced by Cereplast Inc., a leading manufacturer of proprietary bio-based plastics. In addition, Green Toys is using biodegradable colorants from PolyOne Corporation, a premier global provider of polymer materials, services and solutions.
Green Toys has also extended these environmental efforts into its packaging using all recycled paper products with no traditional plastics.
“As the mother of two young children, I understand parents wanting to do their part to improve and preserve our world for our children,” said Laurie Hyman, co-founder of Green Toys. “Additionally, by offering children toys that send a positive message about protecting our planet helps to educate the younger generation about how to make good choices for our environment. It may even create young ambassadors for Mother Nature.”
