Hiya George,

The San Francisco History Center has lots of photos and programs along
with 165 books on the topic, most written around that time and some
containing detailed programs. When I researched the chapter on PPIE I
was overwhelmed. It was the best documented of the three SF world fairs.

http://www.sfpl.org/ Type "panama pacific international exposition" in
the catalog search box.
http://sflib1.sfpl.org:82/ Type "panama pacific international
exposition" in the catalog search box. 281 photos scanned and that's
only a small portion of what they have.

Good luck - it's a challenging bu doable search.
Jim
