Meet the Owners:  Jimmie & Marti Schein See our Gallery - Virtual Tour In the News: Sunday, March 26, 2006 (SF Chronicle) ON THE TOWN .. With Jayson Wechter/Private eye sleuths treasures Aidin Vaziri, Chronicle Staff Writer Over the past 15 years, San Francisco private detective Jayson Wechter has turned the city upside down with his "Vertigo" Treasure Hunt, using locations from Alfred Hitchcock's film of the same name, and another hunt based on sites from Armistead Maupin's "Tales of the City." He also hangs up his spyglass every February and leads amateur sleuths on the Chinese New Year's Treasure Hunt. Needless to say, during that time he's discovered some Bay Area treasures of his own, and he shared some of his favorites with us by e-mail. Schein & Schein, 1435 Grant Ave. "I feel like I'm hanging out in Jimmie and Marti Schein's living room when I settle into the overstuffed couch in their antique prints and maps shop. I'll pore over their stacks of vintage San Francisco photographs, and Jimmie and I will try to puzzle out locations and the identities of long-gone landmarks. I've used at least one old print I found here in one of my treasure hunts."       Postcards & Greetings:     |
