Partial view of the date exhibit at the Southern California Fair at Riverside

 

circa 1925

 

 

This pictures a display cabinet in a space with illustrations of palm trees, a cluster of dates, and a background of palm trees seen outside through the windows. Aside from the title at the top, this side of the white-bordered card boasts that it represents "the only exhibit of its kind in the world." The back of the card advertises the 1925 Southern California Fair due "September 30th to October 6th, 1925, Annually at Riverside--the home of the navel orange. International Date Show. Annual Southwestern Cotton Exposition. Agricultural and Livestock Show. Southern California Junior Judging Contest. Junior Fair. Indian Exibits and Sports. Horse Racing and Grand Carnival. Annual Spanish Fiesta and Pioneer Jubilee. Dons of Jurupa." The card was "furnished by the Hellman Bank To Help Advertise our Splendid Fair." The logo of the bank appears on the divided back as the cursive-like name of the bank, with "Riverside Branch Commercial Trust and Savings." The publisher's number is 124050 near their logo on the back.
