  1. okay, not nearly as elegant as i'd hoped but this turned out to be much more confusing than i'd thought it would be. i only hope that i linked correctly because i don't really have the nerve to try them at this point!

  2. Great stuff. Best Expo ever. Thanks for taking us there. I found a souvenir from the expo amongst some things from my grandmother, indicating she was probably there. I'll be posting that and more pix one of these days. Thanks again.

  5. Thank you for this web site. I started exploring the history of PPIE and collecting PPIE items about six months ago. So far I have tracked down and visited the original trains from PPIE that are now in Santa Cruz and visited the house of doors from PPIE in location /half moon bay.

    My collection is clearly out of control. Yesterday I managed to add to by collection the five volume set by Frank Morton Todd, detailing the exposition from beginning to end with hundreds of color plates/photos contained among the volumes. Each volume is over 300 pages and was never opened. Books are wraped in original craft paper and in original shipping crate. I am really excited to read all the details.
