SPRING 2015 EVENT RECAP Photos by Andrew Quiroz A glimpse of the 1920s-era speakeasy bar in the basement of the Blue and Gold Kennel Club. Guests enter the historic Wunderman House, former home of the Blue and Gold Kennel Club 1920s speakeasy. Our spring 2015 event was the bees knees! Thanks to the hospitality of Gilda Wunderman and Toshi Kumagai, we left our normal stomping grounds at the Adobe Building and stepped inside the Wunderman House, the infamous home of the Blue and Gold Kennel Club—a Prohibition-era speakeasy, bordello, and gambling hall. Guests were treated to guided tours of this rambling 7,200 square-foot structure, built c. 1924. Before and after tours, guests enjoyed food, drink, and live ragtime music. For those who missed out, we hope to hold another event at the Wunderman House soon! MVHA Publicity Chair Marina Marinovich and Mtn. View Mayor John McAlister at the event. Eugene Sharp’s 1936 Buick Convertible added to the historic atmosphere and offered a great photo op for guests. 4
