Artifact Overview

The Ford Exhibit was the largest and most popular attraction at the 1935 California Pacific International Exposition in San Diego.

Ford Motor Company's Sunday symphony hour, hosted by Truman Bradley, broadened Ford's corporate presence at the Exposition and provided bonus advertising.
