The San Francisco Examiner
For 35 years starting in 1965, the "San Francisco Chronicle and Examiner" operated under a Joint Operating Agreement whereby the "Chronicle" published a morning paper and the "Examiner" published in the afternoon. The "Examiner" published the Sunday paper's news sections and glossy magazine, and the "Chronicle" contributed the features. Circulation was approximately 100,000 on weekdays and 500,000 on Sundays. By 1995, discussion was already brewing in print media about the possible shuttering of the "Examiner" due to low circulation and an extremely disadvantageous revenue sharing agreement for the "Chronicle".
Art's Gallery
Art's Gallery is a daily comic strip by Art Finley which lasted from 1962 to 1981. It was featured in the "San Francisco Chronicle" during its run and was syndicated by Chronicle Features from 1962 to 1977, when it moved to Universal Press Syndicate until 1981. The strip consisted of 19th-century woodcut panels from the "Chronicle's" archives, to which Finley added humorous and contemporary captions.
