      Hi, ho2cultcha! Yes, I think that your reading of the name is correct, 'Dolf Yar'. I tried Dolf Yar, Adolf Yar, Adolph Yar, and plain Yar, and I came up empty handed. Love the illustrations! I suggest that you telephone or email the San Francisco historical society and inquire if they have any Yar holdings, or any info on the artist.

      Perhaps a street artist? The are great regardless. How big are they?
