Description

The La Habre agricultural exhibit stands in the near distance at center at the Los Angeles County Fair. The front of the display is lined by a rope and some produce on the ground. Two large lampposts flank the display. Behind the ropes, a female figure at center raises her arms above her head while holding a bunch of grapes. To the right of her, produce is displayed on a table. A sign on the ground in front of the table reads, "LA HABRE." More produce fills vases at left. A scenic backdrop hangs behind the display. Renderings of old world buildings decorate the backdrop. A striped awning stretches over the display. Neighboring displays are visible to either side of the La Habre display. Fringed bunting hangs down from the ceiling of the display space.
