Large sales booth sponsored by Pacific First Federal Savings & Loan Association and the Tacoma Society of Architects with displays of house plans under signage: "Buy, Build, Remodel, Refinance." The Tacoma Better Home Exposition was held at the Armory March 30- April 6, 1935. Tacoma's first federal housing exposition was designed to show Southwest Washington just what could be done under the federal housing act, which encouraged home modernization and new construction. Over 50 exhibitors from across the country contributed. (TDL 3/31/1935, pg. 1; T.Times 4/1/1935, pg. 8-9) (Argentum)
