In this photo taken Friday, March 16, 2018, Benjamin Lin looks over a 60-year-old cheetah jacket he is restoring at the B.B. Hawk showroom in San Francisco. 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.
