In this photo taken Friday, March 16, 2018, a hat sits on a mannequin as Benjamin Lin talks about the possible closure of the B.B. Hawk showroom in San Francisco because of a possible ban on the sales of fur. San Francisco could become the largest U.S. city to ban the sale of fur items, a move that would hearten animal lovers but frustrate niche business owners who say they're fed up with a city that dictates what retailers can or can't sell. If the ban is approved by the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, March 20, 2018, San Francisco would join two other California cities, West Hollywood and Berkeley, in saying no to a symbol of glamour that animal advocates say is built on cruelty and doesn't reflect the city's values.
