On this day in history, November 2, 1952

On November 2, 1952
Dixie Lee Crosby (40), wife of Bing Crosby, died in Hollywood from cancer.

On November 2, 1915
San Francisco’s Panama-Pacific Expo celebrated San Francisco day and drew an estimated 348,472 people, equal to about 70% of the city’s population.

And finally, I was born at St Francis Hospital in Santa Barbara, CA at 11:15 pm. My father was mildly disturbed that my birth resulted in his missing the "Jack Benny" radio show. One other interesting note was my mother's 10 day stay in the hospital (which was common back then). The hospital bill for childbirth and 10 day stay........ $75

So in honor of this historic day let's see some colorful 1952 coins!
