San Francisco Bay Area Postcard Club Annual PPIE Program and Exhibit Meeting
Join the San Francisco Bay Area Postcard Club at its annual PPIE Program and Exhibit meeting!
Although postcards are the group’s raison d’être, there will be many more items to view and much to learn about the 1915 fair at this meeting. Laura Ackley has been a frequent guest speaker for this yearly event. This March, Laura, author of the acclaimed new book on the Panama Pacific International Exposition, will cover the history of the fair, from its first murmurings in 1904, through its battles, planning and construction on up to its glorious and memorable reality of 100 years ago. Join us, please, for this scholarly presentation on the PANAMA PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION OF 1915.
Laura will be signing copies of her book, San Francisco’s Jewel City. If you are not a postcard collector, you may well become one after enjoying this program and seeing the wonders of these small remnants of history.
