    Description

    This is a really neat piece of history to commemorate the completion of the Panama Canal. This was a monumental accomplishment
    for any country, as France tried previously and failed.
    This took place in San Francisco in 1915 and it was quite the endeavor. For 9 months the Presidio's bay front and the marina district
    was the site of a celebration of human spirit and ingenuity. 600 acres on 2.5 miles of waterfront was visited by 18 million people!
    The buildings that were erected are shown in this small booklet and it is a very cool piece of history.
    The booklet has some condition issues:
    the staples are gone so the cover is not attached. All the pages are there.
    the cover has some stains but the pictures are all in good condition.
    You can see the issues in the photos.
