The Crest Forest display at the National Orange Show. The display is an orange-covered tower, the base of which is made to look like snow covered mountains. A mannequin sits at the center holding a wand. There is a sign on top that reads, "Crest Forest Chamber of Commerce San Bernardino Mountains." A sign at the base reads, "The blanket I spread with the snow I make melts to the valley below: That the hungry earth its thirst may slake and make the oranges glow." The Sunkist display, which runs the length of the wall, is visible in the background.
This photograph is very similar to another one of these women captioned "This huge birthday cake, made of golden oranges, and complete even to the candles on the top, heralded the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange in that organization's splendid display at the twenty-third National Orange Show," Los Angeles Times, 5 Mar. 1933: H4.
