Postcards included in this catalog are identified with the Exposition by meeting one or more of these criteria:
- printed reference to the Expo on the card itself, front or back
- part of a series in which some cards contain printed reference to the Expo
- Expo subject matter clearly represented on the card (not just Expo buildings)
- Expo subject matter (including buildings) and cards in series postmarked 1935-1936
- Expo subject matter (including buildings) and dated, hand-written note on card from 1935-1936
While I have attempted to make this electronic catalog the definitive compilation of postcards from the California Pacific Exposition, no list can ever be complete. Your additions will be most welcome.
