John D. (1853-1926) and Adolph B. Spreckels (1857-1924) donated the Spreckels pipe organ to the City of San Diego in 1914 for the Panama-California International Exposition of 1915. It has continued in use into the 21st Century. This is a linen card produced as part of a series for the California Pacific International Exposition of 1935. The publisher's number 4400 is in the upper left white border. The Teich number in the lower right border is 1A-H466, from which the date was derived.
