The official guide and descriptive book of the Panama-California International Exposition : giving in detail, location and description of buildings, exhibits and concessions, flowers and shrubbery
The official guide to the 1916 Panama-California International Exposition in San Diego, issued by the Exposition Commission and published by National Views Co. for visitors to the fair. Its photographic plates show the Pan-Pacific Building and the arcaded Plaza de California, with a printed advertisement for a La Jolla excursion and the Pala Chief gem mine; a designer might take from them the white Spanish Colonial Revival architecture, with its arches, tiled roofs and clipped shrubbery, as a period palette and layout reference.
