The Continental Baking Company building at 703 So. Sprague Ave. dates to 1913 when it was built for the Matthaei Bread Co., the makers of Matthaei's Honey Bread. For this photograph, taken in 1939, the Continental Bakery employees are dressed in western clothes and hats as part of the Washington State Golden Jubilee celebration. Continental, "The Home of Wonder Bread", is still at 703 So. Sprague.
