Description: The Minnesota State Building at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco, 1915. The neoclassical structure features tall columns across its façade, a rooftop flagpole flying an American flag, and well-dressed fairgoers strolling the grounds in period attire. The 1915 exposition celebrated the completion of the Panama Canal and the rebuilding of San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake, making state pavilion cards like this popular collectibles.
