Frances West and Elizabeth West feeding pigeons in the Plaza de Panama at Balboa Park, San Diego, [about 1915]

Description:
According to the negative sleeve for this set, these photographs are of the San Diego Fair, about 1912. The Sacramento Valley Building, viewed here was not built until 1915. It is likely that this image was taken around 1915. In 1915 and through 1916, San Diego hosted the Panama-California Exposition, for which many of the buildings in the photographs were built. The photographs most likely document this event.
