This is a matchbook from Rosebud Ice Cream Parlor and Tavern in Benicia. It was at 433 First Street in Benicia. (This is next door to Lucca's Bar and Grill.) Here are a couple of newspaper articles that mention Rosebuds:
"San Francisco Bay Guardian Issue 09.16"
MAY 31 THROUGH JUNE 13, 1975. VOL.9, NO. 16.
Benicia California Daze, Benicia, May 31-June 1.
Benicia is an honest and unpretentious small town which is still proud of the time it was the state capital and which has refused to sacrifice its native charm to please the ever-increasing mobs of antique hunters who find their way here on weekends. This year's celebration kicks off with "The Ark of Marica Premiere," where Bay Area artists, including heavies like Bob Arneson, Clayton Bailey and Manuel Neri, will be showing their work to benefit the Benicia Arts Center. Music, crafts, downs and street dancing,
Benicia nightlife appears to center around Rosebud's Ice Cream Parlor on First Street, where the main event of the week is the Thursday evening cribbage tournament, which brings the artists out in droves. There are lots of historical sites, and good food in a crazy but comfortable atmosphere can be found down the street at the Washington House.

One of California's premiere mandolin players, Dan Large totes a legacy of Bluegrass chops and traditional roots.
Though he's ranged far & wide in his career, he's got roots here in Benicia and it's a pleasure to get him back on stage. In the 70s there was The Fat Dan Band, Playing in the Benicia City Park on 4th of July or at the venerated Rosebud's Ice Cream Parlor & Tavern - and years later he popped in to town with the Alhambra Valley Band.Collection
