Scope and content
- Here a sign hangs high above Pacific Avenue, likely during the time of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition in June, 1909. One of Tacoma's official mottos, "You'll Like Tacoma" was displayed in big wooden letters on the shore facing the AYPE to publicize the city to the Seattle fair attendees. There were reports that some attendees were confused by the sign, thinking it referred to a breakfast food being offered at the event.
- Printed on front: You'll Like Tacoma--Pacific Avenue, Tacoma, Wash.
